Addition of vDSO support for parisc in kernel v5.18 suddenly broke glibc signal testcases on a 32-bit kernel. The trampoline code (sigtramp.S) which is mapped into userspace includes an offset to the context data on the stack, which is used by gdb and glibc to get access to registers. In a 32-bit kernel we used by mistake the offset into the compat context (which is valid on a 64-bit kernel only) instead of the offset into the "native" 32-bit context.

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.
