commit ac304227bb3ea1787d581f17d76a5f5f3abff51f Author: Rich Felker Date: Wed May 22 18:28:32 2019 -0400 make powerpc64 vrregset_t logical layout match expected API between v2 and v3 of the powerpc64 port patch, the change was made from a 32x4 array of 32-bit unsigned ints for vrregs[] to a 32-element array of __int128. this mismatches the API applications working with mcontext_t expect from glibc, and seems to have been motivated by a misinterpretation of a comment on how aarch64 did things as a suggestion to do the same on powerpc64. diff --git a/arch/powerpc64/bits/signal.h b/arch/powerpc64/bits/signal.h index 94c7a327..2cc0604c 100644 --- arch/powerpc64/bits/signal.h +++ arch/powerpc64/bits/signal.h @@ -16,7 +16,10 @@ typedef struct { } fpregset_t; typedef struct { - unsigned __int128 vrregs[32]; +#ifdef __GNUC__ + __attribute__((__aligned__(16))) +#endif + unsigned vrregs[32][4]; struct { #if __BIG_ENDIAN__ unsigned _pad[3], vscr_word;
