interceptor.rs

//! Simple software breakpoint management.
//!
//! Provides the fundamental mechanisms for inserting and removing breakpoint
//! instructions in guest memory using shadow pages. It serves as a building
//! block for higher-level breakpoint management systems like the
//! [`BreakpointController`].
//!
//! When a breakpoint is inserted, the `Interceptor`:
//! - Creates a shadow copy of the target page
//! - Replaces the target instruction with a breakpoint instruction
//! - Remaps the guest's view to the shadow page
//!
//! The original page content is preserved, allowing the `Interceptor` to
//! restore the original state when breakpoints are removed.
//!
//! [`BreakpointController`]: crate::bpm::BreakpointController
