Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/4] rseq: Introduce extensible struct rseq
Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2020 23:03:44 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200714030348.6214-1-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> (raw)

Recent discussion led to a solution for extending struct rseq. This is
an implementation of the proposed solution.

Now is a good time to agree on this scheme before the release of glibc
2.32, just in case there are small details to fix on the user-space
side in order to allow extending struct rseq.

Thanks,

Mathieu
