I think ELF_NGREG should be 34 here.

On glibc we defined this like this, but I am beginning to doubt it is correct:

    (sys/ucontext.h)
    #define __NGREG	32

    (bits/procfs.h)
    #define ELF_NGREG __NGREG
    typedef elf_greg_t elf_gregset_t[34];

In linux and some other architectures they define ELF_NGREG as below (so that
would mean 34 is right):

    #define ELF_NGREG (sizeof (struct user_regs_struct) / sizeof (elf_greg_t))

In linux we define this, so yours matches.

    (arch/openrisc/include/uapi/asm/ptrace.h)
    truct user_regs_struct {
	    /* GPR R0-R31... */
	    unsigned long gpr[32];
	    unsigned long pc;
	    unsigned long sr;
    };

> +typedef elf_greg_t elf_fpregset_t[ELF_NGREG];

This should be:

    typedef elf_greg_t elf_fpregset_t[32];

However, I have tested all of glibc with the definition as above with ELF_NGREG
32 and elf_gregset_t[34].  But, I think I will like to change that and test
again.

So in the end I think we should use this.

   #define ELF_NGREG (sizeof (struct user_regs) / sizeof (elf_greg_t))
   typedef elf_greg_t elf_gregset_t[ELF_NGREG];
   typedef elf_greg_t elf_fpregset_t[32];


Side Point

I am not sure why cpulimit needs elf_gregset_t anyway.  I see it includes
procfs.h, I removed that include and it seems to compile ok.
