Until now, when we connect gdb to the QEMU gdb-server, the
single-step mode is not managed.

This patch adds this, only for kvm-pr:

If KVM_GUESTDBG_SINGLESTEP is set, we enable single-step trace bit in the
MSR (MSR_SE) just before the __kvmppc_vcpu_run(), and disable it just after.
In kvmppc_handle_exit_pr, instead of routing the interrupt to
the guest, we return to host, with KVM_EXIT_DEBUG reason.

Should the new code rather be limited to the BOOK3S_INTERRUPT_TRACE case
only? I mean, this way, you never can deliver a machine check interrupt
to the guest if singlestep debugging is enabled on the host, can you?

You're right but it adds complexity and it would be only useful to
single-step the single-step mode of the guest.

It's hard to imagine a developer single-stepping the guest kernel while
he is single-stepping a user application in the guest.

It's why I have completely by-passed this case.

Thanks,
Laurent

Hmm, not sure whether you've got me right ;-) I rather meant: What
happens when a machine check is supposed to happen in the guest while
single stepping is enabled at the host level? IMHO it would be better to
shape the code like this:

  	case BOOK3S_INTERRUPT_MACHINE_CHECK:
		kvmppc_book3s_queue_irqprio(vcpu, exit_nr);
		r = RESUME_GUEST;
		break;
	case BOOK3S_INTERRUPT_TRACE:
		if (vcpu->guest_debug & KVM_GUESTDBG_SINGLESTEP) {
			run->exit_reason = KVM_EXIT_DEBUG;
			r = RESUME_HOST;
		} else {
			kvmppc_book3s_queue_irqprio(vcpu, exit_nr);
			r = RESUME_GUEST;
		}

That means, split the two cases, to keep the old behavior for the
MACHINE_CHECK case. That's also not too much of additional complexity,
is it?
