3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: David Rivshin <drivs...@allworx.com>
commit 76ed0b803a2ab793a1b27d1dfe0de7955282cd34 upstream.
NUMREGBYTES (which is used as the size for gdb_regs[]) is incorrectly
based on DBG_MAX_REG_NUM instead of GDB_MAX_REGS. DBG_MAX_REG_NUM
is the number of total registers, while GDB_MAX_REGS is the number
of 'unsigned longs' it takes to serialize those registers. Since
FP registers require 3 'unsigned longs' each, DBG_MAX_REG_NUM is
smaller than GDB_MAX_REGS.
This causes GDB 8.0 give the following error on connect:
"Truncated register 19 in remote 'g' packet"
This also causes the register serialization/deserialization logic
to overflow gdb_regs[], overwriting whatever follows.
