unicore32: Remove signal translation and exec_domain

2015-04-12T19:03:28+00:00

As execution domain support is gone we can remove
signal translation from the signal code and remove
exec_domain from thread_info.

all arches, signal: move restart_block to struct task_struct

2015-02-13T02:54:12+00:00

If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
the restart block is a very juicy exploit target.  This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.

Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.

Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.

It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.

unicore32: Fix build error

unicore32 builds fail with

Bisect points to commit 649671c90eaf ("unicore32: Use get_signal()
signal_setup_done()").

This code never even compiled.  Reverting the patch does not work, since
previously used functions no longer exist, so try to fix it up.  Compile
tested only.

unicore32: Use get_signal() signal_setup_done()

Use the more generic functions get_signal() signal_setup_done()
for signal delivery.

new helper: signal_delivered()

2012-06-01T16:58:52+00:00

Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler();  called when
sigframe has been successfully built.  All architectures converted
to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one).

I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate
story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number +
siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one,
signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() -
take one).

most of set_current_blocked() callers want SIGKILL/SIGSTOP removed from set

2012-06-01T16:58:51+00:00

Only 3 out of 63 do not.  Renamed the current variant to __set_current_blocked(),
added set_current_blocked() that will exclude unblockable signals, switched
open-coded instances to it.
