[PATCH] UML - fix x86_64 with !CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This is a must-fix for 2.6.14.  UML/x86_64 doesn't run when built with 
frame pointers disabled.  There was an implicit frame pointer assumption
in the stub segfault handler.  With frame pointers disabled, UML dies on
handling its first page fault.

The container-of part of this is from Paolo Giarrusso <[email protected]>.
