From 8117ce76c28ef0cab8545b518fa0543f6d1437e6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paolo Galtieri Date: Tue, 29 Nov 2005 14:26:47 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] ppc: fix floating point register corruption I recently discovered a bug on PPC which causes the floating point registers to get corrupted when CONFIG_PREEMPT=y. The problem occurred while running a multi threaded Java application that does floating point. The problem could be reproduced in anywhere from 2 to 6 hours. With the patch I have included below it ran for over a week without failure.
