This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled MIPS: Fix ptrace(2) PTRACE_PEEKUSR and PTRACE_POKEUSR accesses to o32 FGRs to the 3.18-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: mips-fix-ptrace-2-ptrace_peekusr-and-ptrace_pokeusr-accesses-to-o32-fgrs.patch and it can be found in the queue-3.18 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From 9a3a92ccfe3620743d4ae57c987dc8e9c5f88996 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Maciej W. Rozycki" <macro@xxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 14 May 2018 16:49:43 +0100 Subject: MIPS: Fix ptrace(2) PTRACE_PEEKUSR and PTRACE_POKEUSR accesses to o32 FGRs From: Maciej W. Rozycki <macro@xxxxxxxx> commit 9a3a92ccfe3620743d4ae57c987dc8e9c5f88996 upstream. Check the TIF_32BIT_FPREGS task setting of the tracee rather than the tracer in determining the layout of floating-point general registers in the floating-point context, correcting access to odd-numbered registers for o32 tracees where the setting disagrees between the two processes.
