[PATCH 3.16 246/370] powerpc/ptrace: Preserve previous fprs/vsrs on short regset write

From: Ben Hutchings
Date: Fri Mar 10 2017 - 07:20:28 EST


3.16.42-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dave Martin <Dave.Martin@xxxxxxx>

commit 99dfe80a2a246c600440a815741fd2e74a8b4977 upstream.

Ensure that if userspace supplies insufficient data to PTRACE_SETREGSET
to fill all the registers, the thread's old registers are preserved.

Fixes: c6e6771b87d4 ("powerpc: Introduce VSX thread_struct and CONFIG_VSX")
