Subject: [S390] user-copy optimization fallout.
Date: Wed, 4 Oct 2006 19:57:46 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20061004175746.GB26756@skybase> (raw)
From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
[S390] user-copy optimization fallout.
Fix new restore_sigregs function. It copies the user space copy of the
old psw without correcting the psw.mask and the psw.addr high order bit.
While we are at it, simplify save_sigregs a bit.
