Hi,
Sorry to follow up on my own post, but my amateurish kernel debugging
turned up a little more information. "debugreg" is a member of a the
"task_struct" structure defined in <linux/sched.h>, and was dropped in
2.1.110. Reversing that hunk of the 2.1.110 patch breaks a bunch of
other things, and I don't know how to fix it. :-( Thanks for any help!

Hi,
I've been inching toward getting a devel kernel with TGA framebuffer
support to compile on my Alphastation 200. When I try it on a
2.1.111pre1 with the 2.1.110 vmalloc.c changes backed out, here is what
I get:
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2
-fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -mno-fp-regs -ffixed-8 -c -o ptrace.o
ptrace.c
ptrace.c: In function `ptrace_set_bpt':
ptrace.c:426: structure has no member named `debugreg'
ptrace.c:428: structure has no member named `debugreg'
ptrace.c:432: structure has no member named `debugreg'
ptrace.c:435: structure has no member named `debugreg'
ptrace.c:441: structure has no member named `debugreg'
ptrace.c:444: structure has no member named `debugreg'
ptrace.c:446: structure has no member named `debugreg'
ptrace.c:450: structure has no member named `debugreg'
ptrace.c: In function `ptrace_cancel_bpt':
ptrace.c:460: structure has no member named `debugreg'
ptrace.c:462: structure has no member named `debugreg'
ptrace.c:470: structure has no member named `debugreg'
ptrace.c:470: structure has no member named `debugreg'
ptrace.c: In function `sys_ptrace':
ptrace.c:611: structure has no member named `debugreg'
make[1]: *** [ptrace.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/arch/alpha/kernel'
make: *** [linuxsubdirs] Error 2
What's going on? Any help would be appreciated.
