[RFC PATCH 4/5] arm64: signal: Allocate extra sigcontext space as needed

Dave Martin Dave.Martin at arm.com
Fri Sep 9 07:15:45 PDT 2016


This patch modifies the context block allocator to create an
extra_context expansion block as necessary, and adds the necessary
code to populate, parse and decode this block.
