Subject: [RFA] Darwin: single step through sigreturn
Date: Thu, 04 Dec 2008 15:29:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E2F1ED75-ECB8-450F-9D17-65D3A23B2CDC@adacore.com> (raw)
Hi,
as other platform, single stepping through the sigreturn syscall is
special: changing the cpu state
is useless as the context is restored. The trace bit must be set in
the to be restored context.
Tristan.

* i386-darwin-nat.c (i386_darwin_sstep_at_sigreturn): New function.
(amd64_darwin_sstep_at_sigreturn): New function.
(darwin_set_sstep): The sigreturn is a special case: the trace flag
must be set in the mcontext structure.
