For better or worse, GDB relies on the exact instruction sequence in the VDSO sigreturn trampoline in order to unwind from signals correctly. Commit c91db232da48 ("arm64: vdso: Convert to modern assembler annotations") unfortunately added a BTI C instruction to the start of __kernel_rt_sigreturn, which breaks this check. Thankfully, it's also not required, since the trampoline is called from a RET instruction when returning from the signal handler Remove the unnecessary BTI C instruction from __kernel_rt_sigreturn, and do the same for the 32-bit VDSO as well for good measure.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
