From b67b2b703047bfaf62687ca64c9486599b609ef0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Daney Date: Tue, 23 Sep 2008 00:08:45 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] MIPS: Watch exception handling for HARDWARE_WATCHPOINTS. Here we hook up the watch exception handler so that it sends SIGTRAP when the hardware watch registers are triggered.
