SLEEPING_THREAD_TO_G(9)             Kernel Debugger Internals             SLEEPING_THREAD_TO_G(9)



NAME
       sleeping_thread_to_gdb_regs - Convert ptrace regs to GDB regs

SYNOPSIS
       void sleeping_thread_to_gdb_regs(unsigned long * gdb_regs, struct task_struct * p);

ARGUMENTS
       gdb_regs
           A pointer to hold the registers in the order GDB wants.

       p
           The struct task_struct of the desired process.

DESCRIPTION
       Convert 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.
