Dave, it looks like error_code: has been change relatively recently. My
source starts:
error_code:
pushl %ds
pushl %eax
xorl %eax,%eax
pushl %ebp
and so on. Clearly not a valid pt_regs struct.
The source I'm working with is from FC5. On your version of the kernel
only the ERR, SS and ESP would be invalid.
What tree is yours taken from?
My example was from upstream 2.6.22-5. RHEL5 (2.6.18-based)
is slightly different, as the "error_code:" chunk is located
in the "divide_error" entry point, but like 2.6.22-5, all of
the other exceptions jmp to it.
But even your code is creating the remainder of the pt_regs
after the essential registers laid down by the hardware
exception mechanism, by pushing the remaining registers,
"upwards" towards the beginning of the structure:
struct pt_regs {
long ebx;
long ecx;
long edx;
long esi;
long edi;
long ebp;
long eax;
int xds;
int xes;
long orig_eax;
long eip;
int xcs;
long eflags;
long esp;
int xss;
};
Right?
Dave
