Subject: [PATCH v3 3/7] x86: Add struct inactive_task_frame
Date: Sat, 13 Aug 2016 12:38:18 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1471106302-10159-4-git-send-email-brgerst@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1471106302-10159-1-git-send-email-brgerst@gmail.com>
Add struct inactive_task_frame, which defines the layout of the stack for
a sleeping process. For now, the only defined field is the BP register
(frame pointer).
