[PATCH] ARC: Change ld.as instruction to regular ld.

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

 



From: Liav Rehana <liavr@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

User mode callee regs are explicitly collected before signal delivery
or breakpoint trap. r25 is special for kernel as it serves as task
pointer, so user mode value is clobbered very early. It is saved in
pt_regs where generally only scratch (caller saved) res are saved.
The code to access the corresponding pt_regs location had a subtle bug
as it was using load/store with scaling of offset, whereas the offset
was already byte wise correct. So fix this by replacing LD.AS with a
standard LD
