From 44f5c4ced6ddee2f5f2e45fa45b93370245d85bd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff Dike Date: Wed, 7 Mar 2007 20:41:26 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] uml: arch_prctl should set thread fs In my previous x86_64 thread fix, I forgot to initialize thread.arch.fs in arch_prctl. A process calling arch_prctl to set %fs would lose it on the next context switch. It also turns out that you can switch to a process which is in the process of exiting and which has lost its mm. In this case, it's worse than useless to try to call arch_prctl on the host process.
