Series [for-2.12] linux-user/signal.c: Put AArch64 frame record in the right place | expand

Commit Message

AArch64 stack frames include a 'frame record' which holds a pointer
to the next frame record in the chain and the LR on entry to the
function. The procedure calling standard doesn't mandate where
exactly this frame record is in the stack frame, but for signal
frames the kernel puts it right at the top. We used to put it
there too, but in commit 7f0f4208b3a96f22 we accidentally put
the "enlarge to the 4K reserved space minimum" check after the
"allow for the frame record" code, rather than before it, with
the effect that the frame record would be inside the reserved
space and immediately after the last used part of it.

Move the frame record back out of the reserved space to where
we used to put it.

This bug shouldn't break any sensible guest code, but test
programs that deliberately look at the internal details
of the signal frame layout will not find what they are
expecting to see.

I'm marking this as for-2.12 on the basis that it puts our frame
layout back to exactly what 2.11 had, and so seems safest.
No sensible guest code should really care, though, so this is
in the "only if we're doing an rc4" bucket; but I think that the
softfloat fixes deserve an rc4 anyway.

Granted.

It's hard to compare this code with the one in kernel, but if I compare
the offset of "fr" in QEMU and the one of "next_frame" they seem identical.

Mmm. We're not quite the same as the kernel, because we keep 64 bits
of trampoline code in our target_rt_frame_record, which don't exist
on the stack in the kernel. So we'll never be exactly like the
kernel's layout (until/unless we implement a VDSO).

Thanks.

We needed an rc4, so I've applied this to master.
