Subject: [PATCH 4/7] Fix places where using %gs changes the usermode ABI.
Date: Fri, 22 Sep 2006 21:58:28 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1158926308.26261.14.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1158926215.26261.11.camel@localhost.localdomain>

There are a few places where the change in struct pt_regs and the use
of %gs affect the userspace ABI.  These are primarily debugging
interfaces where thread state can be inspected or extracted.
