It may not when it runs uninterrupted but after the tracee process has stopped, thread.dscr reflects the default DSCR value as mentioned before. This can be proved by changing the "dscr_default" value in arch/powerpc/sysfs.c file. > > Over syscall PPR and DSCR may change. Depending on your test case, that may > be your problem. I would guess when the tracee process stops for ptrace analysis, tm_reclaim or tm_recheckpoint path might be crossed which is causing this dscr_default value to go into thread_struct. _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
