Subject: [PULL REQUEST for 3.7-rc4] xtensa: fix syscall table and vfork, and switch to generic thread/execve
Date: Thu, 01 Nov 2012 16:11:43 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <509301AF.6000901@zankel.net> (raw)
Hi Linus,
Would be great if you could pull the Xtensa tree for some important bug
fixes. With the change to uapi, there was a bug introduced that results
in an empty syscall table (mult-inclusion bug). Switching to the generic
thread/execve allowed us to fix a bug we had in vfork().
Thanks,
-Chris
