From 3fa43aba08c5b5a4b407e402606fbe463239b14a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jason Wessel Date: Thu, 5 Aug 2010 09:22:25 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] debug_core,kdb: fix crash when arch does not have single step When an arch such as mips and microblaze does not implement either HW or software single stepping the debug core should re-enter kdb. The kdb code will properly ignore the single step operation. Attempting to single step the kernel without software or hardware support causes unpredictable kernel crashes.
