From cc6b1c0e31e1f639d3c5e161039c24edb41c4537 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kumar Gala Date: Sat, 6 Oct 2007 23:36:26 +0200 Subject: [POWERPC] Flush registers to proper task context When we flush register state for FP, Altivec, or SPE in flush_*_to_thread we need to respect the task_struct that the caller has passed to us. Most cases we are called with current, however sometimes (ptrace) we may be passed a different task_struct. This showed up when using gdbserver debugging a simple program that used floating point. When gdb tried to show the FP regs they all showed up as 0, because the child's FP registers were never properly flushed to memory.
