Subject: tracepoint.c memory range requests
Date: Sat, 19 Nov 2005 01:38:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <8f2776cb0511181737w1f99beb0rec6d4cd40dc7c131@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Looking at the code in tracepoint.c:stringify_collection_list, it
seems that memory ranges with absolute addresses end up having the
form MFFFFFFFF,<start>,<len>.  This is because "%X" always treats its
argument as unsigned.  So the number of F's depends on sizeof
(unsigned int).

I know that we spent some effort keeping the packets small.  Since
there are, as far as we know, no stubs that support tracepoints in
active use, may I change that to send '-' instead of the F's?
