I do something slightly differently in V3. In my
"V2 Use reinsert breakpoint for vCont;s", I install reinsert breakpoints
for needed lwps in two places, linux_resume and proceed_all_lwps, which
isn't ideal.
After the chat with Pedro, we don't need to stop all threads when inserting
reinsert breakpoint, so we can move the breakpoint installation further
down to linux_resume_one_thread and proceed_one_lwp. If
linux_resume_one_thread can use proceed_one_lwp, we can only install
reinsert breakpoints in one place, proceed_one_lwp. Patch 7 changes
linux_resume_one_thread enqueues signal and calls proceed_one_lwp.
Patch 6 is a refactor one to use existing api enqueue_pending_signal.
With the changes in patch 7, patch 8 is simplified compared with V2.
Regression tested on arm-linux and x86_64-linux.
*** BLURB HERE ***
Yao Qi (9):
Pass breakpoint type in set_breakpoint_at
Create sub classes of 'struct breakpoint'
Refactor clone_all_breakpoints
Make reinsert_breakpoint thread specific
Switch current_thread to lwp's thread in
install_software_single_step_breakpoints
Use enqueue_pending_signal in linux_resume_one_thread
Enqueue signal even when resuming threads
Use reinsert_breakpoint for vCont;s
Support vCont s and S actions with software single step
