[PATCH 3.10 206/268] sparc/ptrace: Preserve previous registers for short regset write

From: Willy Tarreau
Date: Mon Jun 19 2017 - 15:33:23 EST


From: Dave Martin <Dave.Martin@xxxxxxx>

commit d3805c546b275c8cc7d40f759d029ae92c7175f2 upstream.

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