Subject: [PATCH 4.4 10/14] metag/ptrace: Preserve previous registers for short regset write
Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2017 11:58:44 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170330094946.619001211@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170330094944.906915050@linuxfoundation.org>

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dave Martin <Dave.Martin@arm.com>

commit a78ce80d2c9178351b34d78fec805140c29c193e upstream.

Ensure that if userspace supplies insufficient data to PTRACE_SETREGSET
to fill all the registers, the thread's old registers are preserved.
