2010-04-15nptl: fix libc sigaction signal checkingTimo Teräs
We should not check for SIGCANCEL in __libc_sigaction because nptl calls this function to setup this signal. Nptl provides it's own override for sigaction that checks that the user cannot override signals nptl uses internally. Linuxthreads does not use SIGCANCEL at all so this affects nptl only.

2008-12-15sigaction overhaul as described in docs/sigaction.txtDenis Vlasenko
Run tested on i386.
2008-12-13Remove the rest of "bounded pointers" scaffolding. gcc website says"Denis Vlasenko
"Bounds Checking Projects... This project has been abandoned" for four years at least.
2008-12-01fix sigset_t size for mips (it's the only arch with 128 signals).Denis Vlasenko
fix _NSIG for it. better document what's going on in sigaction(). seems to not induce any actual code changes (sans mips).

2008-10-19- fix sigaction on older kernels (Michael Deutschmann)Bernhard Reutner-Fischer
In issue #5554 Michael wrote: The implementation of sigaction on i386 for older kernels makes the system call using an inline asm element with two flaws: 1. The asm is not marked as depending on the kact structure or modifying the koact structure. Thus, GCC is free to assume these structures need not be kept consistent, allowing it to remove all initialization of kact. 2. The asm allows the signal number to be provided as a memory reference. But this allows GCC to provide a stack-relative operand, which will break because the assembler saves %ebx on the stack before using that operand. 1 didn't use to be a problem in practice because GCC 4.2.* didn't seize the optimization opportunity. GCC 4.3.2, however, optimizes out the "kact.sa_flags = act->sa_flags | SA_RESTORER;" line, so that the kernel sees garbage in sa_flags. This can result in the kernel seeing the SA_RESETHAND flag, causing erratic behaviour in signal dependent programs. 2 becomes an issue if "-fomit-frame-pointer" is provided. In uClibc-0.9.29 it isn't, uClibc-0.9.30-rc2 does use the flag by default.

in string.h and strings.h. This caught unguarded string ops in libc/inet/ethers.c __ether_line_w() function. I will wait for fallout reports for a week or so, then continue converting more libc_hidden_proto's.

implementation such that gdb can actually debug signal handlers. Gdb behaves much better now, for example, on multi-threaded apps. -Erik
