Can someone explain me why the debug registers from an i386 are no longer saved in the tss (especially DR6). This was the case in the 2.0.x series and was removed in 2.1.0 (arch/i386/kernel/entry.S).
Is there a good reason for that ? Without this, there is no way you can do decent hardware assisted debugging under Linux.
thanks for your answers
