Re: [PATCH] Add alias for kernel's NT_PRFPREG from linux/elf.h.
Even Solaris seems to use NT_PRFPREG. So at this point I don't really
know where the NT_FPREGSET name came from. (My best guess is that a
past version of Solaris used that name, since I don't really know
where else we would have gotten these.)
I think we should declare NT_PRFPREG canonical. That is, it should say:
#define NT_PRFPREG 2 /* Contains copy of fpregset struct */
#define NT_FPREGSET NT_PRFPREG /* Obsolete name for NT_PRFPREG. */
Similar changes should be made in binutils/inlcude/elf/common.h and the
bfd and binutils code that uses it should change to use NT_PRFPREG.
Thanks,
Roland
