      [XTENSA] Add support for the sa_restorer function · 44c64e6b
      Chris Zankel 提交于
      Supporting the sa_restorer function allows for better security
      since the sigreturn system call doesn't need to be placed on
      the stack, so the stack doesn't need to be executable. This
      requires support from the c-library as it has to provide the
      restorer function.

      [XTENSA] Add support for configurable registers and coprocessors · c658eac6
      Chris Zankel 提交于
      The Xtensa architecture allows to define custom instructions and
      registers. Registers that are bound to a coprocessor are only
      accessible if the corresponding enable bit is set, which allows
      to implement a 'lazy' context switch mechanism. Other registers
      needs to be saved and restore at the time of the context switch
      or during interrupt handling.
      
      This patch adds support for these additional states:
      
      - save and restore registers that are used by the compiler upon
        interrupt entry and exit.
      - context switch additional registers unbound to any coprocessor
      - 'lazy' context switch of registers bound to a coprocessor
      - ptrace interface to provide access to additional registers
      - update configuration files in include/asm-xtensa/variant-fsf

      Remove oldmask from the sigcontext structure. Also update wmask
      and windowstart when we flush the AR registers to stack.

      [XTENSA] Remove non-rt signal handling · 29c4dfd9
      Chris Zankel 提交于
      The non-rt signal handling was never really used, so we don't break
      anything. This patch also cleans up the signal stack-frame to make
      it independent from the processor configuration. It also improves
      the method used for controlling single-stepping. We now save and
      restore the 'icountlevel' register that controls single stepping
      and set or clear the saved state to enable or disable it.

      [PATCH] fix incorrect SA_ONSTACK behaviour for 64-bit processes · d09042da
      Laurent MEYER 提交于
      - When setting a sighandler using sigaction() call, if the flag
        SA_ONSTACK is set and no alternate stack is provided via sigaltstack(),
        the kernel still try to install the alternate stack.  This behavior is
        the opposite of the one which is documented in Single Unix Specifications
        V3.
      
      - Also when setting an alternate stack using sigaltstack() with the flag
        SS_DISABLE, the kernel try to install the alternate stack on signal
        delivery.
      
      These two use cases makes the process crash at signal delivery.

      [PATCH] convert signal handling of NODEFER to act like other Unix boxes. · 69be8f18
      Steven Rostedt 提交于
      It has been reported that the way Linux handles NODEFER for signals is
      not consistent with the way other Unix boxes handle it.  I've written a
      program to test the behavior of how this flag affects signals and had
      several reports from people who ran this on various Unix boxes,
      confirming that Linux seems to be unique on the way this is handled.
      
      The way NODEFER affects signals on other Unix boxes is as follows:
      
      1) If NODEFER is set, other signals in sa_mask are still blocked.
      
      2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal is
      still blocked. (Note: this is the behavior of all tested but Linux _and_
      NetBSD 2.0 *).
      
      The way NODEFER affects signals on Linux:
      
      1) If NODEFER is set, other signals are _not_ blocked regardless of
      sa_mask (Even NetBSD doesn't do this).
      
      2) If NODEFER is set and the signal is in sa_mask, then the signal being
      handled is not blocked.
      
      The patch converts signal handling in all current Linux architectures to
      the way most Unix boxes work.
      
      Unix boxes that were tested:  DU4, AIX 5.2, Irix 6.5, NetBSD 2.0, SFU
      3.5 on WinXP, AIX 5.3, Mac OSX, and of course Linux 2.6.13-rcX.
      
      * NetBSD was the only other Unix to behave like Linux on point #2. The
      main concern was brought up by point #1 which even NetBSD isn't like
      Linux.  So with this patch, we leave NetBSD as the lonely one that
      behaves differently here with #2.
