Paul Mackerras 4716e488ab powerpc: Fix kernel crash in emulation of vector loads and stores 
Commit 350779a29f ("powerpc: Handle most loads and stores in
instruction emulation code", 2017-08-30) changed the register usage
in get_vr and put_vr with the aim of leaving the register number in
r3 untouched on return.  Unfortunately, r6 was not a good choice, as
the callers as of 350779a29f store a MSR value in r6.  Then, in
commit c22435a5f3 ("powerpc: Emulate FP/vector/VSX loads/stores
correctly when regs not live", 2017-08-30), the saving and restoring
of the MSR got moved into get_vr and put_vr.  Either way, the effect
is that we put a value in MSR that only has the 0x3f8 bits non-zero,
meaning that we are switching to 32-bit mode.  That leads to a crash
like this:

To fix this, we just revert to using r3 as before, since the callers
don't rely on r3 being left unmodified.

Fortunately, this can't be triggered by a misaligned load or store,
because vector loads and stores truncate misaligned addresses rather
than taking an alignment interrupt.  It can be triggered using
uprobes.

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.
