From c98c09773d80db93cae349f0496fef109feab54d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Catalin Marinas Date: Wed, 6 Apr 2011 16:17:17 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ARM: 6868/1: Preserve the VFP state during fork VFP registers d16-d31 are callee saved registers and must be preserved during function calls, including fork(). The VFP configuration should also be preserved. The patch copies the full VFP state to the child process.
