This patch enables get and set of miscellaneous debug registers
through
ptrace PTRACE_GETREGSET-PTRACE_SETREGSET interface by implementing
new
powerpc specific register set REGSET_MISC support corresponding to
the
new ELF core note NT_PPC_MISC added previously in this regard.
Right now this one does not compile for "ppc64e_defconfig" and
"pmac32_defconfig" config options. The patch below will fix it
and would be part of next revision.
It would be great to have a test tool for that under
tools/testing/selftests/ptrace/
Hey Denis,

I have already added one test case under selftests/powerpc/tm/ which
will test all the newly added ELF core note based ptrace requests on
powerpc. This test case is added as part of the next patch 8/8 in
the series. Please let me know if the test case does not cover something
you are looking for.
Oh, I've missed this one. Anyway, I'll wait the second version to test.

Thanks.
