Subject: [PATCH 5/6] powerpc: Fix lwsync patching code on 64bit
Date: Wed, 10 Feb 2010 22:07:19 +1100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100210110719.GE3399@kryten> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100210110406.GD3399@kryten>
do_lwsync_fixups doesn't work on 64bit, we end up writing lwsyncs to the
wrong addresses:
0:mon> di c0000001000bfacc
c0000001000bfacc 7c2004ac lwsync
Since the lwsync section has negative offsets we need to use a signed int
pointer so we sign extend the value.
