[PATCH 3.16 46/63] arm64: debug: Don't propagate UNKNOWN FAR into si_code for debug signals

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

 



3.16.81-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@xxxxxxx>

commit b9a4b9d084d978f80eb9210727c81804588b42ff upstream.

FAR_EL1 is UNKNOWN for all debug exceptions other than those caused by
taking a hardware watchpoint. Unfortunately, if a debug handler returns
a non-zero value, then we will propagate the UNKNOWN FAR value to
userspace via the si_addr field of the SIGTRAP siginfo_t.

Instead, let's set si_addr to take on the PC of the faulting instruction,
which we have available in the current pt_regs.
