Subject: [BUG?]  possible bug in user_enable_block_step()
Date: Thu, 11 Apr 2013 16:38:30 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <51673B66.1090206@genband.com> (raw)


Hi,

I'm looking at user_enable_block_step() in current kernels and it has 
the following:

#ifdef CONFIG_PPC_ADV_DEBUG_REGS
		task->thread.dbcr0 &= ~DBCR0_IC;
		task->thread.dbcr0 = DBCR0_IDM | DBCR0_BT;
		regs->msr |= MSR_DE;


Should it be as follows?

		task->thread.dbcr0 |= DBCR0_IDM | DBCR0_BT;


If not, then what's the point of clearing the DBCR0_IC bit in the 
previous line?

Chris
