[Bug gdb/14953] New: x86 AMD masked/ranged hwbreakpoints/watchpoints


http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14953

             Bug #: 14953
           Summary: x86 AMD masked/ranged hw breakpoints/watchpoints
           Product: gdb
           Version: HEAD
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gdb
        AssignedTo: unassigned@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: palves@redhat.com
    Classification: Unclassified
            Target: x86_64-*-*


From

 https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/12/12/261

We see that x86 AMD Family 16h and beyond has support for masked/ranged hw
breakpoints/watchpoints.

GDB has support for such breakpoints with break-range, and masked
watchpoints with 'watch expr [maskvalue]', but HW acceleration
is currently only implemented on PowerPC.
