commit5714ee50bbupstream. This fixes a regression encountered while running the gdb.base/corefile.exp test in GDB's test suite. In my testing, the typo prevented the sw_reserved field of struct fxregs_state from being output to the kernel XSAVES area. Thus the correct mask corresponding to XCR0 was not present in the core file for GDB to interrogate, resulting in the following behavior: [kev@f32-1 gdb]$ ./gdb -q testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/corefile/corefile testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/corefile/corefile.core Reading symbols from testsuite/outputs/gdb.base/corefile/corefile... [New LWP 232880] warning: Unexpected size of section `.reg-xstate/232880' in core file. With the typo fixed, the test works again as expected.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
