Subject[RESEND PATCH 0/2] Don't use SIGMINSTKSZ when enforcing alternative signal stack size for compat tasks
Date
Hi all,

This is a resend of:

http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2018-July/593559.html

now based on 4.19-rc2.

The Debian folks have observed a failure in the 32-bit arm glibc testsuite
when running under a 64-bit kernel. They tracked this down to sigaltstack(2)
enforcing the alternative signal stack to be at least SIGMINSTKSZ bytes,
which is higher for native arm64 tasks than compat 32-bit tasks.

These patches resolve the issue by allowing an architecture to define
COMPAT_SIGMINSTKSZ for compat tasks, which is then used by the sigaltstack
checking code.

Feedback welcome,

Will

signal: Introduce COMPAT_SIGMINSTKSZ for use in compat_sys_sigaltstack
arm64: compat: Provide definition for COMPAT_SIGMINSTKSZ
