Hi,
This series adds signal handling support to the nolibc subsystem.
1) Initial implementation of nolibc sigaction(2) function.
Currently, this implementation is only available on the x86-64 arch.
sigaction() needs an architecture-dependent "signal trampoline" function that invokes the __rt_sigreturn syscall to resume the process after a signal gets handled.
On Linux x86-64, the "signal trampoline" function has to be written in inline Assembly to prevent the compiler from controlling the %rsp (e.g., with -fno-omit-frame-pointer, every function has a pushq %rbp that makes the %rsp no longer point to struct rt_sigframe).
The "signal trampoline" function is called __arch_restore_rt in this implementation.
2) signal(2) function.
signal() function is the simpler version of sigaction(). Unlike sigaction(), which fully controls the struct sigaction, the caller only cares about the sa_handler when calling the signal() function.
signal() internally calls sigaction(). This implementation is currently only available on the x86-64 arch. When the sigaction() function support is expanded to other architectures, this function will automatically support those architectures. It's basically just a sigaction() wrapper.
3) Extra nolibc updates.
Apart from the signal handling support. This series also contains nolibc updates, they are:
- getpagesize() support. - CFLAGS update. - fork(2) selftest. - sigaction(2) selftest. - signal(2) selftest. - getpagesize(2) selftest.
There 8 patches in this series. It has been tested on Linux x86-64 arch and all tests OK.
$ sudo ./nolibc-test Running test 'syscall' ... ... 66 wait_child = -1 ECHILD [OK] 67 waitpid_min = -1 ESRCH [OK] 68 waitpid_child = -1 ECHILD [OK] 69 write_badf = -1 EBADF [OK] 70 write_zero = 0 [OK] Errors during this test: 0
