This patch consolidates all Linux sigaction implementations on the default
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sigaction.c. The idea is remove redundant code
and simplify new ports addition by following the current generic
Linux User API (UAPI).
The UAPI for new ports defines a generic extensible sigaction struct as:
struct sigaction
{
__sighandler_t sa_handler;
unsigned long sa_flags;
#ifdef SA_RESTORER
void (*sa_restorer) (void);
#endif
sigset_t sa_mask;
};
Where SA_RESTORER is just placed for compatibility reasons (news ports
should not add it). A similar definition is used on generic
kernel_sigaction.h.
The user exported sigaction definition is not changed, so for most
architectures it requires an adjustment to kernel expected one for the
syscall.
The main changes are:
- All architectures now define and use a kernel_sigaction struct meant
for the syscall, even for the architectures where the user sigaction
has the same layout of the kernel expected one (s390-64 and ia64).
Although it requires more work for these architectures, it simplifies
the generic implementation. Also, sigaction is hardly a hotspot where
micro optimization would play an important role.
- The generic kernel_sigaction definition is now aligned with expected
UAPI one for newer ports, where SA_RESTORER and sa_restorer are not
expected to be defined. This means adding kernel_sigaction for
current architectures that does define it (m68k, nios2, powerpc, s390,
sh, sparc, and tile) and which rely on previous generic definition.
- Remove old MIPS usage of sa_restorer. This was removed since 2.6.27
(2957c9e61ee9c - "[MIPS] IRIX: Goodbye and thanks for all the fish").
- The remaining arch-specific sigaction.c are to handle ABI idiosyncrasies
(like SPARC kernel ABI for rt_sigaction that requires an additional
stub argument).
So for new ports the generic implementation should work if its uses
Linux UAPI. If SA_RESTORER is still required (due some architecture
limitation), it should define its own kernel_sigaction.h, define it and
include generic header (assuming it still uses the default generic kernel
layout).
Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu, i686-linux-gnu, arm-linux-gnueabihf,
aarch64-linux-gnu, sparc64-linux-gnu, sparcv9-linux-gnu, powerpc-linux-gnu,
powerpc64-linux-gnu, ia64-linux-gnu and alpha-linux-gnu. I also checked the
build on all remaining affected ABIs.

This directory contains the sources of the GNU C Library. See the file "version.h" for what release version you have. The GNU C Library is the standard system C library for all GNU systems, and is an important part of what makes up a GNU system. It provides the system API for all programs written in C and C-compatible languages such as C++ and Objective C; the runtime facilities of other programming languages use the C library to access the underlying operating system. In GNU/Linux systems, the C library works with the Linux kernel to implement the operating system behavior seen by user applications. In GNU/Hurd systems, it works with a microkernel and Hurd servers. The GNU C Library implements much of the POSIX.1 functionality in the GNU/Hurd system, using configurations i[4567]86-*-gnu. When working with Linux kernels, this version of the GNU C Library requires Linux kernel version 3.2 or later. Also note that the shared version of the libgcc_s library must be installed for the pthread library to work correctly. The GNU C Library supports these configurations for using Linux kernels: aarch64*-*-linux-gnu alpha*-*-linux-gnu arm-*-linux-gnueabi hppa-*-linux-gnu i[4567]86-*-linux-gnu x86_64-*-linux-gnu Can build either x86_64 or x32 ia64-*-linux-gnu m68k-*-linux-gnu microblaze*-*-linux-gnu mips-*-linux-gnu mips64-*-linux-gnu powerpc-*-linux-gnu Hardware or software floating point, BE only. powerpc64*-*-linux-gnu Big-endian and little-endian. s390-*-linux-gnu s390x-*-linux-gnu riscv64-*-linux-gnu sh[34]-*-linux-gnu sparc*-*-linux-gnu sparc64*-*-linux-gnu tilegx-*-linux-gnu If you are interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc maintainers; see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ for more information. See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, and install the GNU C Library. You might also consider reading the WWW pages for the C library at http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/. The GNU C Library is (almost) completely documented by the Texinfo manual found in the `manual/' subdirectory. The manual is still being updated and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like. For corrections to the manual, please file a bug in the `manual' component, following the bug-reporting instructions below. Please be sure to check the manual in the current development sources to see if your problem has already been corrected. Please see http://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html for bug reporting information. We are now using the Bugzilla system to track all bug reports. This web page gives detailed information on how to report bugs properly. The GNU C Library is free software.
