Subject[git pull] kgdb 2.6.27-rc7 fixes
Date
Linus, please pull the kgdb git tree fixes for 2.6.27-rc7

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jwessel/linux-2.6-kgdb.git for_linus

Summary:

Several regressions have been fixed for which there was no automated test.
- Fix regression in flushing data/instruction cache on boundaries
- User space single stepping should be ignored by kgdb
- x86_64 had the BX and DX registers reversed in gdb
- x86_64 eflags, CS, SS, registers were not properly passed to gdb
- tty_io.c has one function repaired which is only used kgdboc
to hook up to the tty system. The input args were not properly
checked. Test case was:
"echo ffff0 > /sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc"


Short log follows:

---

Atsuo Igarashi (1):
kgdb: could not write to the last of valid memory with kgdb

Jason Wessel (4):
kgdb, x86, arm, mips, powerpc: ignore user space single stepping
kgdb, x86_64: gdb serial has BX and DX reversed
kgdb, x86_64: fix PS CS SS registers in gdb serial
kgdboc,tty: Fix tty polling search to use name correctly
