How do you set a value to a QOM register from GDB?

[清水寛子]

Hello everyone.

I made a simple QOM which returns an error message when I read/write the
QOM register value like the bottom.

Then I'm trying to read/write the QOM register from GDB.
I can read the QOM register value using the "print" command and get the
error message in qemu monitor.
This means that "print" calls the test_read function.
(gdb) p *0x40000004
      999
(qemu) access test_read 0

However, I can't write a value to the QOM register by "set" command.
Moreover, "set" command doesn't call the test_write function because I
don't get the error message defined in the test_write function.
(gdb) set *((int *)0x40000004) = 100
(gdb) p *0x40000004
      999

I really want to solve this problem.
Can you suggest any solutions how to set a value to the QOM register via
GDB ?
