Actually, we should make it unconditionally zero, not reset it to
current->thread.debugreg6. That's because the invariant at exit from
do_debug is DR6 = 0.
/*
* do_debug expects dr6 to be cleared after it runs, but here
* we might have a stale dr6 from the guest.
*/
set_debugreg(0, 6);
I'll push the patch to kvm/queue.
Thanks,
Paolo
