[PATCH 3/5] MIPS: Also verify sizeof `elf_fpreg_t' with PTRACE_SETREGSET

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

 



Complement commit d614fd58a283 ("mips/ptrace: Preserve previous 
registers for short regset write") and like with the PTRACE_GETREGSET 
ptrace(2) request also apply a BUILD_BUG_ON check for the size of the 
`elf_fpreg_t' type in the PTRACE_SETREGSET request handler.
