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

 



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

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

From: Krzysztof Mazur <krzysiek@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 4d1a535b8ec5e74b42dfd9dc809142653b2597f6 upstream.

glibc 2.26 removed the 'struct ucontext' to "improve" POSIX compliance
and break programs, including User Mode Linux. Fix User Mode Linux
by using POSIX ucontext_t.

This fixes:

arch/um/os-Linux/signal.c: In function 'hard_handler':
arch/um/os-Linux/signal.c:163:22: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type 'struct ucontext'
  mcontext_t *mc = &uc->uc_mcontext;
arch/x86/um/stub_segv.c: In function 'stub_segv_handler':
arch/x86/um/stub_segv.c:16:13: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type 'struct ucontext'
          &uc->uc_mcontext);
