PPR is the odd register out when it comes to interrupt handling, it is saved in current->thread.ppr while all others are saved on the stack. The difficulty with this is that accessing thread.ppr can cause a SLB fault, but the SLB fault handler implementation in C change had assumed the normal exception entry handlers would not cause an SLB fault. Fix this by allocating room in the interrupt stack to save PPR. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
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.
