commit 96f1b00138cb8f04c742c82d0a7c460b2202e887 upstream. ARCv2 has some configuration dependent registers (r30, r58, r59) which could be targetted by the compiler. To keep the ABI stable, these were unconditionally part of the glibc ABI (sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arc/sys/ucontext.h:mcontext_t) however we missed populating them (by saving/restoring them across signal handling). This patch fixes the issue by - adding arcv2 ABI regs to kernel struct sigcontext - populating them during signal handling Change to struct sigcontext might seem like a glibc ABI change (although it primarily uses ucontext_t:mcontext_t) but the fact is - it has only been extended (existing fields are not touched) - the old sigcontext was ABI incomplete to begin with anyways Fixes: https://github.com/foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors/linux/issues/53 Cc: <stable@vger.kernel.org> Tested-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com> Reported-by: Vladimir Isaev <isaev@synopsys.com> Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta <vgupta@synopsys.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
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.
