OK, thanks for info. I do not think I have those available.
An appropriate test would be to run many threads and create the
maximum amount of hw watchpoints and see if that works fine, but
GDB's debug resource accounting is still a little awkward
One can test the number of registers in singlethreaded testcase and then run
the real test with multithreaded program.
A testcase would be nice, for example now the changes in
archer-jankratochvil-watchpoint3 and pre-requisite of non-stop compatibility
of hw watchpoints mean a lot of hw watchpoints rewrite in ppc-linux-nat.c.
But if you are not going to write a testcase then I find it OK for both HEAD
and 7.5.
