[ 06/74] ARC: gdbserver breakage in Big-Endian configuration #2

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

 



3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Vineet Gupta <Vineet.Gupta1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

[Based on mainline commit 352c1d95e3220d0: "ARC: stop using
pt_regs->orig_r8"]

Stop using orig_r8 as it could get clobbered by ST in trap_with_param,
and further it is semantically not needed either.
