From 253f29a4ae9cc6cdc7b94f96517f27a93885a6ce Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Brian Gerst Date: Tue, 10 Feb 2009 09:51:46 -0500 Subject: x86: pass in pt_regs pointer for syscalls that need it Some syscalls need to access the pt_regs structure, either to copy user register state or to modifiy it. This patch adds stubs to load the address of the pt_regs struct into the %eax register, and changes the syscalls to regparm(1) to receive the pt_regs pointer as the first argument.
