-Subject: m68k: Use conventional function parameters for do_sigreturn
-
-Create conventional stack parameters for the calls to do_sigreturn and
-do_rt_sigreturn. The current C code for do_sigreturn and do_rt_sigreturn
-dig into the stack to create local pointers to the saved switch stack
-and the pt_regs structs.
-
-The motivation for this change is a problem with non-MMU targets that
-have broken signal return paths on newer versions of gcc. It appears as
-though gcc has determined that the pointers into the saved stack structs,
-and the saved structs themselves, are function parameters and updates to
-them will be lost on function return, so they are optimized away. This
-results in large parts of restore_sigcontext() and mangle_kernel_stack()
-functions being removed. Of course this results in non-functional code
-causing kernel oops. This problem has been observed with gcc version
-5.2 and 5.3, and probably exists in earlier versions as well.
-
-Using conventional stack parameter pointers passed to these functions has
-the advantage of the code here not needing to know the exact details of
-how the underlying entry handler layed these structs out on the stack.
-So the rather ugly pointer setup casting and arg referencing can be
-removed.
-
-The resulting code after this change is a few bytes larger (due to the
-overhead of creating the stack args and their tear down). Not being hot
-paths I don't think this is too much of a problem here.
-
-An alternative solution is to put a barrier() in the do_sigreturn() code,
-but this doesn't feel quite as clean as this solution.
-
-This change has been compile tested on all defconfigs, and run tested on
-Atari (through aranym), ColdFire with MMU (M5407EVB) and ColdFire with
-no-MMU (QEMU and M5208EVB).
