2.6.23-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Andrey Mirkin patch 1c5b5cfd290b6cb7c67020ef420e275f746a7236 in mainline. x86: return correct error code from child_rip in x86_64 entry.S Right now register edi is just cleared before calling do_exit. That is wrong because correct return value will be ignored. Value from rax should be copied to rdi instead of clearing edi. AK: changed to 32bit move because it's strictly an int [ tglx: arch/x86 adaptation ] Signed-off-by: Andrey Mirkin Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- arch/x86_64/kernel/entry.S | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) --- a/arch/x86_64/kernel/entry.S +++ b/arch/x86_64/kernel/entry.S @@ -989,7 +989,7 @@ child_rip: movq %rsi, %rdi call *%rax # exit - xorl %edi, %edi + mov %eax, %edi call do_exit CFI_ENDPROC ENDPROC(child_rip) -- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
