[PATCH 4/5] sparc32: return destination pointer on return from memcpy

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

 



Gcc can optimize constant strcpy to a memcpy call. However
the return value of strcpy is used in KGDB. Return the standard return
value instead of 0
