From ec6d0dde71d760aa60316f8d1c9a1b0d99213529 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Naveen N. Rao" Date: Thu, 9 Jun 2022 16:03:28 +0530 Subject: powerpc: Enable execve syscall exit tracepoint On execve[at], we are zero'ing out most of the thread register state including gpr[0], which contains the syscall number. Due to this, we fail to trigger the syscall exit tracepoint properly. Fix this by retaining gpr[0] in the thread register state.
