Sorry, it is me who missed something. :-)
After we get stopped data address, we can set it back to 0, because it is
not used any more if not hit another time by a h/w watchpoint. Did it
make sense?
Here is the modified patch:
2005-12-22 Ben Elliston <bje@au1.ibm.com>
Wu Zhou <woodzltc@cn.ibm.com>
* rs6000-tdep.c (rs6000_gdbarch_init): If the macn is p630, set
gdbarch to have nonsteppable watchpoint.
* ppc-linux-nat.c: Define three macro: PTRACE_GET_DEBUGREG,
PTRACE_SET_DEBUGREG and PTRACE_GETSIGINFO. Define one static
variable last_stopped_data_address.
(ppc_linux_check_watch_resources): New function to check whether
the target have available hardware watchpoint resource.
(ppc_linux_insert_watchpoint): New function to insert a hardware
watchpoint.
(ppc_linux_remove_watchpoint): New function to remove a hardware
watchpoint.
(ppc_linux_stopped_data_address): New function to get the stopped
data address of the watchpoint.
(ppc_linux_stopped_by_watchpoint): New function to see if the
inferior is stopped by watchpoint.
(_initialize_ppc_linux_nat): Set the above hardware watchpoint
related target vectors.
