Subject: [PATCH 3/9] powerpc: Add TIF_ELF2ABI flag.
Date: Wed, 20 Nov 2013 22:15:00 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1384946106-18200-4-git-send-email-anton@samba.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1384946106-18200-1-git-send-email-anton@samba.org>

From: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

Little endian ppc64 is getting an exciting new ABI.  This is reflected
by the bottom two bits of e_flags in the ELF header:

	0 == legacy binaries (v1 ABI)
	1 == binaries using the old ABI (compiled with a new toolchain)
	2 == binaries using the new ABI.

We store this in a thread flag, because we need to set it in core
dumps and for signal delivery.  Our chief concern is that it doesn't
use function descriptors.
