Subject: PATCH: Make i386 signal delivery work with -mregparm
Date: Thu, 26 Aug 2004 14:14:01 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <412E5299.3070806@zytor.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 512 bytes --]

This patch allows i386 signal delivery to work correctly when userspace 
is compiled with -mregparm.  This is somewhat hacky: it passes the 
arguments *both* on the stack and in registers, but it works because 
there are only one or three (depending on SA_SIGINFO) official 
arguments.  If you're relying on the unofficial arguments then you're 
doing something nonportable anyway and can put in the 
__attribute__((cdecl,regparm(0))) in the correct place.

Patch against current top of tree (2.6.9-rc1).
