I changed it to 0x200a93. The test passed on my machine. But I don't
have a FRED system to test the special case.
Didn't manage to apply the feedback from Andrew about the way to handle
redzone properly, though.
Something like this...
----------
This is just an RFC patchset.
Xin Li reported sysret_rip test fails at:
assert(ctx->uc_mcontext.gregs[REG_EFL] ==
ctx->uc_mcontext.gregs[REG_R11]);
in a FRED system. Handle the FRED system scenario too. There are two
patches in this series. Comments welcome...
Note: Only tested for 'syscall' sets %rcx=%rip and %r11=%rflags case.
I don't have a FRED system to test it.
How to test this:
$ make -C tools/testing/selftests/x86
$ tools/testing/selftests/x86/sysret_rip_64
