DR6 has a whole bunch of bits that have negative polarity; they were architecturally reserved and defined to be 1 and are now getting used. Since they're 1 by default, 0 becomes the signal value. Handle this by xor'ing the read DR6 value by the reserved mask, this will flip them around such that 1 is the signal value (positive polarity). Current Linux doesn't yet support any of these bits, but there's two defined: - DR6[11] Bus Lock Debug Exception (ISEr39) - DR6[16] Restricted Transactional Memory (SDM) Update ptrace_{set,get}_debugreg() to provide/consume the value in architectural polarity. Although afaict ptrace_set_debugreg(6) is pointless, the value is not consumed anywhere. Change hw_breakpoint_restore() to alway write the DR6_RESERVED value to DR6, again, no consumer for that write.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
