Subject: [PATCH 0/6] x86: Merge pt_regs using syscalls
Date: Wed, 9 Dec 2009 19:01:50 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1260403316-5679-1-git-send-email-brgerst@gmail.com> (raw)
This patch set converts the 32-bit syscalls that need pt_regs to
match the same prototype as 64-bit, using regparm(3) and adding
the pt_regs pointer as an extra argument. This allows these
syscalls to be merged.
[PATCH 1/6] x86, 32-bit: Add new pt_regs stubs
[PATCH 2/6] x86: Merge sys_iopl
[PATCH 3/6] x86: Merge sys_execve
[PATCH 4/6] x86: Merge sys_sigaltstack
[PATCH 5/6] x86, 32-bit: Convert sys_vm86 & sys_vm86old
[PATCH 6/6] x86: Merge sys_clone
