From b09e789c438c406bd9bcaac6f1c940a75007e59f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Shaohua Li Date: Fri, 17 Aug 2007 13:43:50 -0700 Subject: [IA64] forbid ptrace changes psr.ri to 3 The "ri" field in the processor status register only has defined values of 0, 1, 2. Do not let ptrace set this to 3. As with other reserved fields in registers we silently discard the value.
