Subject: [ 19/46] arm64: elf: fix core dumping to match what glibc expects
Date: Thu, 24 Jan 2013 13:12:57 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130124211143.395523252@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130124211135.862755794@linuxfoundation.org>

3.7-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com>

commit 9cf2b72b25f3f6a5a1a46a4f36037e66de52465c upstream.

The kernel's internal definition of ELF_NGREG uses struct pt_regs, which
means that we disagree with userspace on the size of coredumps since
glibc correctly uses the user-visible struct user_pt_regs.

This patch fixes our ELF_NGREG definition to use struct user_pt_regs
and introduces our own ELF_CORE_COPY_REGS to convert between the user
and kernel structure definitions.
