Subject: [PATCH] xen/x86: Adjust stack pointer in xen_sysexit
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2015 18:18:26 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1447456706-24347-1-git-send-email-boris.ostrovsky@oracle.com> (raw)

After 32-bit syscall rewrite, and specifically after commit 5f310f739b4c
("x86/entry/32: Re-implement SYSENTER using the new C path"), the stack
frame that is passed to xen_sysexit is no longer a "standard" one (i.e.
it's not pt_regs).

We need to adjust it so that subsequent xen_iret can use it.

Signed-off-by: Boris Ostrovsky <boris.ostrovsky@oracle.com>
---

Alternatively, we could return 0 from do_fast_syscall_32() if paravirt_enabled()
is true since Xen PV guests will end up using xen_iret one way or the other. And
then we won't need xen_sysexit at all.
