Signals are always delivered to 64-bit tasks with CS set to a long mode segment. In long mode, SS doesn't matter as long as it's a present writable segment. If SS starts out invalid (this can happen if the signal was caused by an IRET fault or was delivered on the way out of set_thread_area or modify_ldt), then IRET to the signal handler can fail, eventually killing the task. The straightforward fix would be to simply reset SS when delivering a signal. That breaks DOSEMU, though: 64-bit builds of DOSEMU rely on SS being set to the faulting SS when signals are delivered. As a compromise, this patch leaves SS alone so long as it's valid. The net effect should be that the behavior of successfully delivered signals is unchanged. Some signals that would previously have failed to be delivered will now be delivered successfully. This has no effect for x32 or 32-bit tasks: their signal handlers were already called with SS == __USER_DS. (On Xen, there's a slight hole: if a task sets SS to a writable *kernel* data segment, then we will fail to identify it as invalid and we'll still kill the task. If anyone cares, this could be fixed with a new paravirt hook.)
