Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/2] target-arm: Fix SYS_HEAPINFO for 64-bit guests
Date: Fri, 24 Jun 2016 16:49:39 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1466783381-29506-1-git-send-email-peter.maydell@linaro.org> (raw)

These patches fix bugs in the ARM semihosting SYS_HEAPINFO
syscall for 64-bit guests:
 * the fields in linux-user's TaskState should be abi_ulong,
   not uint32_t, since they're guest addresses
 * the SYS_HEAPINFO implementation needs to write its return
   data struct using fields of the right width

The recent patch from Tsung-Han Lin ("target-arm: fix semihosting ram
base issue") addressed this issue in passing, but these patches
take a slightly different approach:
 * factor out the "write fields back" code to reduce duplication
   between the various (32,64) x (user,system) cases
 * use put_user*() rather than tswap and direct write, to
   avoid potential issues with the guest handing us a
   misaligned pointer

thanks
