Subject: [PATCH 1/2] powerpc: use kernel endianness in MSR in 32-bit signal handler
Date: Sun, 03 Jan 2021 01:34:35 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <2058876.irdbgypaU6@sheen> (raw)
From: Joseph J Allen <eerykitty@gmail.com>
This mirrors the behavior in handle_rt_signal32, to obey kernel endianness
rather than assume a 32-bit process is big-endian. Without this change,
any 32-bit little-endian process will SIGILL immediately upon handling a
signal.
