SLEEPING_THREAD_TO_G(9) Kernel Debugger Internals SLEEPING_THREAD_TO_G(9)NAMEsleeping_thread_to_gdb_regs - Convert ptrace regs to GDB regsSYNOPSISvoid sleeping_thread_to_gdb_regs(unsigned long * gdb_regs, struct task_struct * p);ARGUMENTSgdb_regs A pointer to hold the registers in the order GDB wants. p The struct task_struct of the desired process.DESCRIPTIONConvert the register values of the sleeping process in p to the format that GDB expects. This function is called when kgdb does not have access to the struct pt_regs and therefore it should fill the gdb registers gdb_regs with what has been saved in struct thread_struct thread field during switch_to.AUTHORJason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com> Author.COPYRIGHTKernel Hackers Manual 3.10 June 2014 SLEEPING_THREAD_TO_G(9)
