Description

sparc64-rtems-gcc uses the global g4 register as a segment register. We need to maintain the segment register as pointing to 0. When tasks are allocated with dirty memory the initial context may have some non-zero values in the g4 register. The attached patch makes the appropriate adjustment during context initialization. This problem manifested as a bug in samples/unlimited due to tasks being deleted and created.
