Subject: [PATCH] arm64: ptrace: fix empty registers set in prstatus of aarch32 process core
Date: Tue,  3 Jun 2014 11:21:30 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1401819690-3048-1-git-send-email-victor.kamensky@linaro.org> (raw)

Currently core file of aarch32 process prstatus note has empty
registers set. As result aarch32 core files create by V8 kernel are
not very useful.

It happens because compat_gpr_get and compat_gpr_set functions can
copy registers values to/from either kbuf or ubuf. ELF core file
collection function fill_thread_core_info calls compat_gpr_get
with kbuf set and ubuf set to 0. But current compat_gpr_get and
compat_gpr_set function handle copy to/from only ubuf case.

Fix is to handle kbuf and ubuf as two separate cases in similar
way as other functions like user_regset_copyout, user_regset_copyin do.
