[PATCH] ppc64: Add PTRACE_{GET|SET}VRREGS
The ptrace get and set methods for VMX/Altivec registers present in the ppc tree were missing for ppc64. This patch adds the 32-bit and 64-bit methods. Updated with the suggestions from Anton following the lines of his code snippet. Added: - flush_altivec_to_thread calls as suggested by Anton - piecewise copy of structure to preserve 32-bit vrsave data as per Anton (I consolidated the 32 and 64bit versions with 2 helper macros - Anton) Signed-off-by: Robert C Jennings <rcjenn@austin.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
