The patch titled
Subject: ptrace/x86: ptrace_write_dr7() should create bp if !disabled
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
ptrace-x86-ptrace_write_dr7-should-create-bp-if-disabled.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: ptrace/x86: ptrace_write_dr7() should create bp if !disabled
24f1e32c ("hw-breakpoints: Rewrite the hw-breakpoints layer on top of perf
events") introduced the minor regression. Before this commit
PTRACE_POKEUSER DR7, enableDR0
PTRACE_POKEUSER DR0, address
was perfectly valid, now PTRACE_POKEUSER(DR7) fails if DR0 was not
previously initialized by PTRACE_POKEUSER(DR0).
Change ptrace_write_dr7() to do ptrace_register_breakpoint(addr => 0) if
!bp && !disabled. This fixes watchpoint-zeroaddr from ptrace-tests, see
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=660204.
