This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled arm64: ptrace: fix compat hardware watchpoint reporting to the linux-3.13.y-queue branch of the 3.13.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.13.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.13.11.8. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.13.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From 812e7b6d0bb13dce7a9f833fff5372d5ad2f16d8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Date: Fri, 22 Aug 2014 14:13:24 +0100 Subject: arm64: ptrace: fix compat hardware watchpoint reporting commit 27d7ff273c2aad37b28f6ff0cab2cfa35b51e648 upstream. I'm not sure what I was on when I wrote this, but when iterating over the hardware watchpoint array (hbp_watch_array), our index is off by ARM_MAX_BRP, so we walk off the end of our thread_struct... ... except, a dodgy condition in the loop means that it never executes at all (bp cannot be NULL). This patch fixes the code so that we remove the bp check and use the correct index for accessing the watchpoint structures.
