Peter Anvin" , Ingo Molnar , Thomas Gleixner Cc: LKML , hjl.tools@gmail.com Subject: [patch v2 0/4] updated ptrace/core-dump patches for supporting xstate - V2 Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Patches are on top of the -tip/master tree. First patch in the series reverts the first version of the patch that went into the -tip tree. Changes from v1: a. Split the patch into multiple patches. b. Fix some bugs and coding style changes based on Roland's feedback. c. Add generic PTRACE_GETREGSET/PTRACE_SETREGSET commands through which we can export the architecture specific regsets using the corresponding NT_* codes that userland is already aware of. The "xstate" regset is exported only using this interface. thanks, suresh
