Hi
I am using Z/z packets for hardware break points now. In the GDB
document, "Debugging with GDB", it still says that Z/z packet type is a
"draft". Can someone modify the doc. and make the GDB position firm on
the Z/z packets.
Thanks

GDB uses the Z/z packets for hardware breakpoints so what kgdb thinks it
is doing is puzzling.
