Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/4] sparc: fix accurate exception reporting in

Hi,

From: Michael Karcher <kernel@...rcher.dialup.fu-berlin.de>

> Based on a finding by Anthony Yznaga that the UltraSPARC III copy_from_user
> returns invalid values breaking other parts of the kernel in case of a
> fault, while the generic implementation is correct.

Tested-by: René Rebe <rene@...ctcode.com> # UltraSparc III+ and UltraSparc IIIi
