Propose complete review of Linux architecture and use of swapgs instruction to enable kgdb, kdb, mdb, kprobes, and other debugging tools to operate correctly. Linux currently does not support the above listed tools due to an architectural limitation in the way Linux deals with userspace/kernelspace transitions. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
