Subject: [PATCH 4.9 10/16] sparc/ptrace: Preserve previous registers for short regset write
Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2017 12:16:01 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170330100431.964064995@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170330100431.550322562@linuxfoundation.org>

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

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

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

commit d3805c546b275c8cc7d40f759d029ae92c7175f2 upstream.

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