From c2372eb9bcafdd149b26987a8c25bbed92fd2775 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Roland McGrath Date: Thu, 13 Mar 2008 19:25:35 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] [POWERPC] user_regset PTRACE_SETREGS regression fix The PTRACE_SETREGS request was only recently added on powerpc, and gdb does not use it. So it slipped through without getting all the testing it should have had. The user_regset changes had a simple bug in storing to all of the 32-bit general registers block on 64-bit kernels. This bug only comes up with PTRACE_SETREGS, not PPC_PTRACE_SETREGS. It causes a BUG_ON to hit, so this fix needs to go in ASAP.
