Subject: Bug in get_insn_opcode.
Date: Fri, 02 Mar 2001 17:56:48 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3A9FD0D0.887E372F@mips.com> (raw)

There is a bug in the function get_insn_opcode in traps.c

As 'epc' is an int pointer here, it should only be increased by 1 (4
byte) and not by 4 (4*4 = 16 bytes).
See the patch below.
