Subject: [PATCH] x32: make sure TS_COMPAT is cleared for x32 tasks
Date: Sat, 25 Feb 2012 23:25:38 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1330230338-25077-1-git-send-email-bobbypowers@gmail.com> (raw)
If a process has a non-x32 ia32 personality and changes to x32, the
process would keep its TS_COMPAT flag. x32 uses the presence of the
x32 flag on a syscall to determine compat status, so make sure
TS_COMPAT is cleared.
