+From FEDORA_PATCHES Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
+From: Keith Seitz <keiths@redhat.com>
+Date: Tue, 19 Mar 2019 11:38:37 -0700
+Subject: gdb-rhbz1669953-aarch64-sve-binutils.patch
+
+;; Fix 'gdb fails to read zN registers from corefile with aarch64 SVE'
+;; Alan Hayward, RH BZ 1669953
+
+Add checks for the NT_ARM_SVE section in a core file.
+
+The NT_ARM_SVE section is documented here:
+ https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/arm64/sve.txt
+ * A NT_ARM_SVE note will be added to each coredump for each thread of the
+ dumped process. The contents will be equivalent to the data that would have
+ been read if a PTRACE_GETREGSET of NT_ARM_SVE were executed for each thread
+ when the coredump was generated.
+
+ * elf.c (elfcore_grok_aarch_sve): New function.
+ (elfcore_grok_note): Check for Aarch64 SVE.
+ (elfcore_write_aarch_sve): New function.
+ (elfcore_write_register_note): Check for Aarch64 SVE.
+ * elf-bfd.h(elfcore_grok_aarch_sve): New declaration.
