I'm not even sure we can get away with trap. Basically, WARN_ON should also trigger a trap, so you'd end up in gdb for that when having a breakpoint defined. > > There'd need to be a way for qemu/gdb to have KVM reflect the exception > to the guest if it doesn't have a breakpoint on file for that address. Yes, but that piece is missing for every KVM target right now. I'd like to see something generic emerge here that we can reuse across different architectures :). Trap seems very tricky too though. According to page 1082 of the 2.06 spec, trap can issue a debug or a program interrupt depending on MSR_DE. I don't see any mentioning in the spec that we intercept program or debug interrupts. So I guess we'd have to override the offset vectors and handle _every_ interrupt ourselves. Bleks.
