2016-02-17x86/signal/64: Re-add support for SS in the 64-bit signal contextAndy Lutomirski
This is a second attempt to make the improvements from c6f2062935c8 ("x86/signal/64: Fix SS handling for signals delivered to 64-bit programs"), which was reverted by 51adbfbba5c6 ("x86/signal/64: Add support for SS in the 64-bit signal context"). This adds two new uc_flags flags. UC_SIGCONTEXT_SS will be set for all 64-bit signals (including x32). It indicates that the saved SS field is valid and that the kernel supports the new behavior. The goal is to fix a problems with signal handling in 64-bit tasks: SS wasn't saved in the 64-bit signal context, making it awkward to determine what SS was at the time of signal delivery and making it impossible to return to a non-flat SS (as calling sigreturn clobbers SS). This also made it extremely difficult for 64-bit tasks to return to fully-defined 16-bit contexts, because only the kernel can easily do espfix64, but sigreturn was unable to set a non-flag SS:ESP. (DOSEMU has a monstrous hack to partially work around this limitation.) If we could go back in time, the correct fix would be to make 64-bit signals work just like 32-bit signals with respect to SS: save it in signal context, reset it when delivering a signal, and restore it in sigreturn. Unfortunately, doing that (as I tried originally) breaks DOSEMU: DOSEMU wouldn't reset the signal context's SS when clearing the LDT and changing the saved CS to 64-bit mode, since it predates the SS context field existing in the first place. This patch is a bit more complicated, and it tries to balance a bunch of goals. It makes most cases of changing ucontext->ss during signal handling work as expected. I do this by special-casing the interesting case. On sigreturn, ucontext->ss will be honored by default, unless the ucontext was created from scratch by an old program and had a 64-bit CS (unfortunately, CRIU can do this) or was the result of changing a 32-bit signal context to 64-bit without resetting SS (as DOSEMU does). For the benefit of new 64-bit software that uses segmentation (new versions of DOSEMU might), the new behavior can be detected with a new ucontext flag UC_SIGCONTEXT_SS. To avoid compilation issues, __pad0 is left as an alias for ss in ucontext. The nitty-gritty details are documented in the header file. This patch also re-enables the sigreturn_64 and ldt_gdt_64 selftests, as the kernel change allows both of them to pass.

'struct _fpstate_ia32' and 'struct _fpstate' on i386 are identical in all fields, except 'padding1' being named 'padding'. We unify the two structures and add a union that is both named 'padding1' and 'padding', in the (unlikely) case there's user-space code that relies on the padding field name. We rename the two main types to be: struct _fpstate_32 struct _fpstate_64 for the 32-bit and 64-bit frame, and map them to the main and compat structure names (_fpstate) depending on whether we are on 32-bit or on 64-bit kernels. We also keep the old _fpstate_ia32 name as a legacy name.

They were cleanups, but they break dosemu by changing the signal return behavior (and removing 'fs' and 'gs' from the sigcontext struct - while not actually changing any behavior - causes build problems).

2015-05-19x86/fpu: Rename xsave.header::xstate_bv to 'xfeatures'Ingo Molnar
'xsave.header::xstate_bv' is a misnomer - what does 'bv' stand for? It probably comes from the 'XGETBV' instruction name, but I could not find in the Intel documentation where that abbreviation comes from. It could mean 'bit vector' - or something else? But how about - instead of guessing about a weird name - we named the field in an obvious and descriptive way that tells us exactly what it does? So rename it to 'xfeatures', which is a bitmask of the xfeatures that are fpstate_active in that context structure. Eyesore like: fpu->state->xsave.xsave_hdr.xstate_bv |= XSTATE_FP; is now much more readable: fpu->state->xsave.header.xfeatures |= XSTATE_FP; Which form is not just infinitely more readable, but is also shorter as well.

As far as I can tell, these fields have been set to zero on save and ignored on restore since Linux was imported into git. Rename them '__pad1' and '__pad2' to avoid confusion. This may also allow us to recycle them some day. This also adds a comment clarifying the history of those fields. I'm intentionally avoiding calling either of them '__pad0': the field formerly known as '__pad0' is now 'ss'.

2015-03-17x86/signal/64: Fix SS handling for signals delivered to 64-bit programsAndy Lutomirski
The comment in the signal code says that apps can save/restore other segments on their own. It's true that apps can *save* SS on their own, but there's no way for apps to restore it: SYSCALL effectively resets SS to __USER_DS, so any value that user code tries to load into SS gets lost on entry to sigreturn. This recycles two padding bytes in the segment selector area for SS. While we're at it, we need a second change to make this useful. If the signal we're delivering is caused by a bad SS value, saving that value isn't enough. We need to remove that bad value from the regs before we try to deliver the signal. Oddly, the i386 code already got this right. I suspect that 64-bit programs that try to run 16-bit code and use signals will have a lot of trouble without this.
