[patch added to 3.12-stable] arm64/ptrace: Preserve previous registers for short regset write

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

 



From: Dave Martin <Dave.Martin@xxxxxxx>

This patch has been added to the 3.12 stable tree. If you have any
objections, please let us know.

===============

commit 9a17b876b573441bfb3387ad55d98bf7184daf9d upstream.

Ensure that if userspace supplies insufficient data to
PTRACE_SETREGSET to fill all the registers, the thread's old
registers are preserved.

Fixes: 478fcb2cdb23 ("arm64: Debugging support")
