David S. Miller 6717c282e4 sparc: Add __KERNEL__ ifdef protection to pt_regs helpers.
Some of them use 'bool' and whatnot and therefore are not
kosher for userspace, so don't export them there.

Mikael Pettersson d72609e17f sparc64: FUTEX_OP_ANDN fix
Correct sparc64's implementation of FUTEX_OP_ANDN to do a
bitwise negate of the oparg parameter before applying the
AND operation. All other archs that support FUTEX_OP_ANDN
either negate oparg explicitly (frv, ia64, mips, sh, x86),
or do so indirectly by using an and-not instruction (powerpc).
Since sparc64 has and-not, I chose to use that solution.

I've not found any use of FUTEX_OP_ANDN in glibc so the
impact of this bug is probably minor. But other user-space
components may try to use it so it should still get fixed.

Ulrich Drepper ed8cae8ba0 flag parameters: pipe
This patch introduces the new syscall pipe2 which is like pipe but it also
takes an additional parameter which takes a flag value.  This patch implements
the handling of O_CLOEXEC for the flag.  I did not add support for the new
syscall for the architectures which have a special sys_pipe implementation.  I
think the maintainers of those archs have the chance to go with the unified
implementation but that's up to them.

The implementation introduces do_pipe_flags.  I did that instead of changing
all callers of do_pipe because some of the callers are written in assembler.
I would probably screw up changing the assembly code.  To avoid breaking code
do_pipe is now a small wrapper around do_pipe_flags.  Once all callers are
changed over to do_pipe_flags the old do_pipe function can be removed.

The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and
x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed.

David S. Miller 28e6103665 sparc: Fix debugger syscall restart interactions.
So, forever, we've had this ptrace_signal_deliver implementation
which tries to handle all of the nasties that can occur when the
debugger looks at a process about to take a signal.  It's meant
to address all of these issues inside of the kernel so that the
debugger need not be mindful of such things.

Problem is, this doesn't work.

The idea was that we should do the syscall restart business first, so
that the debugger captures that state.  Otherwise, if the debugger for
example saves the child's state, makes the child execute something
else, then restores the saved state, we won't handle the syscall
restart properly because we lose the "we're in a syscall" state.

The code here worked for most cases, but if the debugger actually
passes the signal through to the child unaltered, it's possible that
we would do a syscall restart when we shouldn't have.

In particular this breaks the case of debugging a process under a gdb
which is being debugged by yet another gdb.  gdb uses sigsuspend
to wait for SIGCHLD of the inferior, but if gdb itself is being
debugged by a top-level gdb we get a ptrace_stop().  The top-level gdb
does a PTRACE_CONT with SIGCHLD to let the inferior gdb see the
signal.  But ptrace_signal_deliver() assumed the debugger would cancel
out the signal and therefore did a syscall restart, because the return
error was ERESTARTNOHAND.

Fix this by simply making ptrace_signal_deliver() a nop, and providing
a way for the debugger to control system call restarting properly:

1) Report a "in syscall" software bit in regs->{tstate,psr}.
   It is set early on in trap entry to a system call and is fully
   visible to the debugger via ptrace() and regsets.

2) Test this bit right before doing a syscall restart.  We have
   to do a final recheck right after get_signal_to_deliver() in
   case the debugger cleared the bit during ptrace_stop().

3) Clear the bit in trap return so we don't accidently try to set
   that bit in the real register.

As a result we also get a ptrace_{is,clear}_syscall() for sparc32 just
like sparc64 has.

M68K has this same exact bug, and is now the only other user of the
ptrace_signal_deliver hook.  It needs to be fixed in the same exact
way as sparc.

Unfortunately, this value is what ended up in the GLIBC sys/ptrace.h

So continue to recognize this old value.  Luckily, it doesn't conflict
with anything we actually care about.

David S. Miller dc5dc7e6d7 sparc: Fix SA_ONSTACK signal handling.
We need to be more liberal about the alignment of the buffer given to
us by sigaltstack().  The user should not need to be mindful of all of
the alignment constraints we have for the stack frame.

This mirrors how we handle this situation in clone() as well.

Also, we align the stack even in non-SA_ONSTACK cases so that signals
due to bad stack alignment can be delivered properly.  This makes such
errors easier to debug and recover from.

Finally, add the sanity check x86 has to make sure we won't overflow
the signal stack.

This fixes glibc testcases nptl/tst-cancel20.c and
nptl/tst-cancelx20.c

David S. Miller ccc34028d4 sparc32: Kill totally unused memory information tables.
The code in arch/sparc/prom/memory.c computes three tables, the list
of total memory, the list of available memory (total minus what
firmware is using), and the list of firmware taken memory.

Only the available memory list is even used.

Therefore, kill those unused tables and make prom_meminfo() return
just the available memory list.

David S. Miller e2fdd7fd99 sparc: Add kgdb support.
Current limitations:

1) On SMP single stepping has some fundamental issues,
   shared with other sw single-step architectures such
   as mips and arm.

2) On 32-bit sparc we don't support SMP kgdb yet.  That
   requires some reworking of the IPI mechanisms and
   infrastructure on that platform.

David S. Miller 0a9e9b110c sparc32: Kill smp_message_pass() and related code.
Completely unused, and it just makes the SMP message
passing code on 32-bit sparc look more complex than
it is.

David S. Miller 5526b7e451 sparc: Remove old style signal frame support.
Back around the same time we were bootstrapping the first 32-bit sparc
Linux kernel with a SunOS userland, we made the signal frame match
that of SunOS.

By the time we even started putting together a native Linux userland
for 32-bit Sparc we realized this layout wasn't sufficient for Linux's
needs.

Therefore we changed the layout, yet kept support for the old style
signal frame layout in there.  The detection mechanism is that we had
sys_sigaction() start passing in a negative signal number to indicate
"new style signal frames please".

Anyways, no binaries exist in the world that use the old stuff.  In
fact, I bet Jakub Jelinek and myself are the only two people who ever
had such binaries to be honest.

So let's get rid of this stuff.

I added an assertion using WARN_ON_ONCE() that makes sure 32-bit
applications are passing in that negative signal number still.

Adrian Bunk a5c5642798 sparc: cleanup after SunOS binary emulation removal
The following cleanups are now possible:
- arch/sparc/kernel/entry.S:ret_sys_call no longer has to be global
- arch/sparc/kernel/signal.c:sys_sigpause() can be removed
