From e4be4d4942b92cdd2d3e87ed178269bcd5844526 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Martin Date: Fri, 6 Jan 2017 17:54:51 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] tile/ptrace: Preserve previous registers for short regset write commit fd7c99142d77dc4a851879a66715abf12a3193fb upstream. Ensure that if userspace supplies insufficient data to PTRACE_SETREGSET to fill all the registers, the thread's old registers are preserved.
