ptrace GET/SET FPXREGS broken
When I update kernel 2.6.25 from 2.6.24, gdb does not work. On 2.6.25, ptrace(PTRACE_GETFPXREGS, ...) returns ENODEV. But 2.6.24 kernel's ptrace() returns EIO. It is issue of compatibility. I attached test program as pt.c and patch for fix it. #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <signal.h> #include <errno.h> #include <sys/ptrace.h> #include <sys/types.h> struct user_fxsr_struct { unsigned short cwd; unsigned short swd; unsigned short twd; unsigned short fop; long fip; long fcs; long foo; long fos; long mxcsr; long reserved; long st_space[32]; /* 8*16 bytes for each FP-reg = 128 bytes */ long xmm_space[32]; /* 8*16 bytes for each XMM-reg = 128 bytes */ long padding[56]; }; int main(void) { pid_t pid; pid = fork(); switch(pid){ case -1:/* error */ break; case 0:/* child */ child(); break; default: parent(pid); break; } return 0; } int child(void) { ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME); kill(getpid(), SIGSTOP); sleep(10); return 0; } int parent(pid_t pid) { int ret; struct user_fxsr_struct fpxregs; ret = ptrace(PTRACE_GETFPXREGS, pid, 0, &fpxregs); if(ret < 0){ printf("%d: %s.\n", errno, strerror(errno)); } kill(pid, SIGCONT); wait(pid); return 0; } /* in the kerel, at kernel/i387.c get_fpxregs() */ Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
