[PATCH v2 1/2] riscv/ptrace: add new regset to access original a0 register

Celeste Liu uwu at coelacanthus.name
Tue Dec 3 01:30:04 PST 2024


The orig_a0 is missing in struct user_regs_struct of riscv, and there is
no way to add it without breaking UAPI. (See Link tag below)

Like NT_ARM_SYSTEM_CALL do, we add a new regset name NT_RISCV_ORIG_A0 to
access original a0 register from userspace via ptrace API.
