[PATCH 1/2] ARM: ELF: Define new core note type for VFP registers

Dave Martin dave.martin at linaro.org
Fri Apr 1 12:21:27 EDT 2011


The VFP registers are not currently included in coredumps,
and there's no existing note type where they can sensibly be
included, so this patch defines a dedicated note type for them.
