[RFC PATCH 2/2] ARM: VFP: preserve the HW context when calling signal handlers

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Imre Deak <imre.deak@xxxxxxxxx>

Signal handlers can use floating point, so prevent them to corrupt
the main thread's VFP context. So far there were two signal stack
frame formats defined based on the VFP implementation, but recently
a new user struct was added for ptrace that covers all possibilities,
so use it for the signal stack too.

Signed-off-by: Imre Deak <imre.deak@xxxxxxxxx>
