The hardware singlestep mechanism in POWER works via a Trace Interrupt
(0xd00) that happens after any instruction executes, whenever MSR_SE =
1 (PowerISA Section 6.5.15 - Trace Interrupt).

However, with kvm_hv, the Trace Interrupt happens inside the guest and
KVM has no visibility of it. Therefore, when the gdbstub uses the
KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG ioctl to enable singlestep, KVM simply ignores it.

This patch takes advantage of the Trace Interrupt to perform the step
inside the guest, but uses a breakpoint at the Trace Interrupt handler
to return control to KVM. The exit is treated by KVM as a regular
breakpoint and it returns to the host (and QEMU eventually).

Before signalling GDB, QEMU sets the Next Instruction Pointer to the
instruction following the one being stepped, effectively skipping the
interrupt handler execution and hiding the trace interrupt breakpoint
from GDB.

This approach works with both of GDB's 'scheduler-locking' options
(off, step).

This won't link on MIPS, you miss the stub there.

You can use the extract32() function to extract bits, it is easier to review:

Ditto.

Phil.
