2012-03-22sparc: use block_sigmask()Matt Fleming
Use the new helper function introduced in commit 5e6292c0f28f ("signal: add block_sigmask() for adding sigmask to current->blocked") which centralises the code for updating current->blocked after successfully delivering a signal and reduces the amount of duplicate code across architectures. In the past some architectures got this code wrong, so using this helper function should stop that from happening again. Acked-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Acked-by: "David S.

2011-11-15sparc: Stash orig_i0 into %g6 instead of %g2David S. Miller
As per the comments added by this commit, %g2 turns out to not be a usable place to save away orig_i0 for syscall restart handling. In fact all of %g2, %g3, %g4, and %g5 are assumed to be saved across a system call by various bits of code in glibc. %g1 can't be used because that holds the syscall number, which would need to be saved and restored for syscall restart handling too, and that would only compound our problems :-) This leaves us with %g6 and %g7 which are for "system use". %g7 is used as the "thread register" by glibc, but %g6 is used as a compiler and assembler temporary scratch register. And in no instance is %g6 used to hold a value across a system call. Therefore %g6 is safe for storing away orig_i0, at least for now. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-11-15sparc: Fix handling of orig_i0 wrt. debugging when restarting syscalls.David S. Miller
Although we provide a proper way for a debugger to control whether syscall restart occurs, we run into problems because orig_i0 is not saved and restored properly. Luckily we can solve this problem without having to make debuggers aware of the issue. Across system calls, several registers are considered volatile and can be safely clobbered. Therefore we use the pt_regs save area of one of those registers, %g2, as a place to save and restore orig_i0. Debuggers transparently will do the right thing because they save and restore this register already. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-10-12sparc: Avoid calling sigprocmask()David S. Miller
Use set_current_blocked() instead. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-10-12sparc: Use set_current_blocked()Matt Fleming
As described in e6fa16ab ("signal: sigprocmask() should do retarget_shared_pending()") the modification of current->blocked is incorrect as we need to check whether the signal we're about to block is pending in the shared queue.

2011-08-21sparc: Allow handling signals when stack is corrupted.David S. Miller
If we can't push the pending register windows onto the user's stack, we disallow signal delivery even if the signal would be delivered on a valid seperate signal stack. Add a register window save area in the signal frame, and store any unsavable windows there. On sigreturn, if any windows are still queued up in the signal frame, try to push them back onto the stack and if that fails we kill the process immediately. This allows the debug/tst-longjmp_chk2 glibc test case to pass. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-09-22sparc: Prevent no-handler signal syscall restart recursion.David S. Miller
Explicitly clear the "in-syscall" bit when we have no signal handler and back up the program counters to back up the system call. Reported-by: Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-09-22sparc: Don't mask signal when we can't setup signal frame.David S. Miller
Don't invoke the signal handler tracehook in that situation either. Reported-by: Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2010-09-21sparc64: Fix race in signal instruction flushing.David S. Miller
If another cpu does a very wide munmap() on the signal frame area, it can tear down the page table hierarchy from underneath us. Borrow an idea from the 64-bit fault path's get_user_insn(), and disable cross call interrupts during the page table traversal to lock them in place while we operate.

2010-02-10sparc: Align clone and signal stacks to 16 bytes.David S. Miller
This is mandatory for 64-bit processes, and doing it also for 32-bit processes saves a conditional in the compat case. This fixes the glibc/nptl/tst-stdio1 test case, as well as many others, on 64-bit. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2008-12-04sparc,sparc64: unify kernel/Sam Ravnborg
o Move all files from sparc64/kernel/ to sparc/kernel - rename as appropriate o Update sparc/Makefile to the changes o Update sparc/kernel/Makefile to include the sparc64 files NOTE: This commit changes link order on sparc64! Link order had to change for either of sparc32 and sparc64. And assuming sparc64 see more testing than sparc32 change link order on sparc64 where issues will be caught faster.
