- /* The following assertion is not right, as there can be changes
- that have not been made to the hardware debug registers
- before new changes overwrite the old ones. This can happen,
- for instance, when the breakpoint/watchpoint hit one of the
- threads and the user enters continue; then what happens is:
- 1) all breakpoints/watchpoints are removed for all threads;
- 2) a single step is carried out for the thread that was hit;
- 3) all of the points are inserted again for all threads;
- 4) all threads are resumed.
- The 2nd step will only affect the one thread in which the
- bp/wp was hit, which means only that one thread is resumed;
- remember that the actual updating only happen in
- aarch64_linux_prepare_to_resume, so other threads remain
- stopped during the removal and insertion of bp/wp. Therefore
- for those threads, the change of insertion of the bp/wp
- overwrites that of the earlier removals. (The situation may
- be different when bp/wp is steppable, or in the non-stop
- mode.) */
