• 70e0eb8ef   [PATCH] Split i386 and x86_64 ptrace.h ... Browse Code »

  The use of SEGMENT_RPL_MASK in the i386 ptrace.h introduced by
  x86-allow-a-kernel-to-not-be-in-ring-0.patch broke the UML build, as UML
  includes the underlying architecture's ptrace.h, but has no easy access to the
  x86 segment definitions.

  Rather than kludging around this, as in the past, this patch splits the
  userspace-usable parts, which are the bits that UML needs, of ptrace.h into
  ptrace-abi.h, which is included back into ptrace.h. Thus, there is no net
  effect on i386.

  As a side-effect, this creates a ptrace header which is close to being usable
  in /usr/include.

  x86_64 is also treated in this way for consistency. There was some trailing
  whitespace there, which is cleaned up.
