Debug Status Register (DR6) Breakpoint Condition Detected Flags May be
Set Incorrectly
Problem:
The Debug Status Register (DR6) may report detection of a spurious breakpoint condition under
certain boundary conditions when either:
•
A "MOV SS" or "POP SS" instruction is immediately followed by a hardware debugger
breakpoint instruction, or
•
Any debug register access ("MOV DRx, r32" or "MOV r32, DRx") results in a general-detect
exception condition.
Implication:
Due to this erratum the breakpoint condition detected flags may be set incorrectly.
Workaround:
None identified.
Status:
No Fix.
