I ran into a pt_regs "leak" into userspace ABI - causing some apps build
failures.
This prompted me to clean the slight mess in that area (patch inline below). The
"fundamental-ness" of this patch warrants a chop-n-dice-n-squash into orig
series
(vs. a addon change) hence the reason for running this by you.
The fundamental change is following - with everything else being a adjustment
for it.
struct sigcontext {
- struct pt_regs regs;
+ struct user_regs_struct regs;
};
struct user_regs_struct {
- struct pt_regs scratch;
- struct callee_regs callee;
+ struct scratch {
+ long pad;
+ long bta, lp_start, lp_end, lp_count;
+ long status32, ret, blink, fp, gp;
+ long r12, r11, r10, r9, r8, r7, r6, r5, r4, r3, r2, r1, r0;
+ long sp;
+ } scratch;
+ struct callee {
+ long pad;
+ long r25, r24, r23, r22, r21, r20;
+ long r19, r18, r17, r16, r15, r14, r13;
+ } callee;
long efa; /* break pt addr, for break points in delay slots */
long stop_pc; /* give dbg stop_pc directly after checking orig_r8 */
};
The only downside of this patch is that userspace signal stack grows in size,
since signal frame only cares about scratch regs (pt_regs), but has to
accommodate
unused placeholder for callee regs too by virtue of using user_regs_struct.
Please let me know if you OK with merge of this patch into linux-next,
(obviously
after chop-n-dice-n-squash).
Thx,
-Vineet
