[PATCH] x86_64: Move int 3 handler to debug stack and allow to increase it.
This - switches the INT3 handler to run on an IST stack (to cope with breakpoints set by a kernel debugger on places where the kernel's %gs base hasn't been set up, yet); the IST stack used is shared with the INT1 handler's [AK: this also allows setting a kprobe on the interrupt/exception entry points] - allows nesting of INT1/INT3 handlers so that one can, with a kernel debugger, debug (at least) the user-mode portions of the INT1/INT3 handling; the nesting isn't actively enabled here since a kernel- debugger-free kernel doesn't need it Signed-Off-By: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@novell.com> Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
