We reserve 128 bytes for struct siginfo but only use about 48 bytes on
64bit and 32 bytes on 32bit. Someday we might use more but it is unlikely
to be anytime soon.
Userspace seems content with just enough bytes of siginfo to implement
sigqueue. Or in the case of checkpoint/restart reinjecting signals
the kernel has sent.
Reducing the stack footprint and the work to copy siginfo around from
2 cachelines to 1 cachelines seems worth doing even if I don't have
benchmarks to show a performance difference.

Linus recently observed that if we did not worry about the padding
member in struct siginfo it is only about 48 bytes, and 48 bytes is
much nicer than 128 bytes for allocating on the stack and copying
around in the kernel.
The obvious thing of only adding the padding when userspace is
including siginfo.h won't work as there are sigframe definitions in
the kernel that embed struct siginfo.
So split siginfo in two; kernel_siginfo and siginfo. Keeping the
traditional name for the userspace definition. While the version that
is used internally to the kernel and ultimately will not be padded to
128 bytes is called kernel_siginfo.
The definition of struct kernel_siginfo I have put in include/signal_types.h
A set of buildtime checks has been added to verify the two structures have
the same field offsets.
To make it easy to verify the change kernel_siginfo retains the same
size as siginfo. The reduction in size comes in a following change.

In preparation for using a smaller version of siginfo in the kernel
introduce copy_siginfo_from_user and use it when siginfo is copied from
userspace.
Make the pattern for using copy_siginfo_from_user and
copy_siginfo_from_user32 to capture the return value and return that
value on error.
This is a necessary prerequisite for using a smaller siginfo
in the kernel than the kernel exports to userspace.

Rework the defintion of struct siginfo so that the array padding
struct siginfo to SI_MAX_SIZE can be placed in a union along side of
the rest of the struct siginfo members. The result is that we no
longer need the __ARCH_SI_PREAMBLE_SIZE or SI_PAD_SIZE definitions.
Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com>
The kernel needs to validate that the contents of struct siginfo make
sense as siginfo is copied into the kernel, so that the proper union
members can be put in the appropriate locations. The field si_signo
is a fundamental part of that validation. As such changing the
contents of si_signo after the validation make no sense and can result
in nonsense values in the kernel.
As such simply fail if someone is silly enough to set si_signo out of
sync with the signal number passed to sigqueueinfo.
I don't expect a problem as glibc's sigqueue implementation sets
"si_signo = sig" and CRIU just returns to the kernel what the kernel
gave to it.
If there is some application that calls sigqueueinfo directly that has
a problem with this added sanity check we can revisit this when we see
what kind of crazy that application is doing.

Pass the signal number, and the signal code, and the faulting
address into uc32_notify_die so the callers do not need
to generate a struct siginfo.

The ia64 handling of failure to return from a signal frame has been trying
to set overlapping fields in struct siginfo since 2.3.43. The si_code
corresponds to the fields that were stomped (not the field that is
actually written), so I can not imagine a piece of userspace code
making sense of the signal frame if it looks closely.
In practice failure to return from a signal frame is a rare event that
almost never happens. Someone using an alternate signal stack to
recover and looking in detail is even more rare. So I presume no one
has ever noticed and reported this ia64 nonsense.
Sort this out by causing ia64 to use force_sig(SIGSEGV) like other architectures.

The ia64 handling of failure to setup a signal frame has been trying
to set overlapping fields in struct siginfo since 2.3.43. The si_pid
and si_uid fields are stomped when the si_addr field is set. The
si_code of SI_KERNEL indicates that si_pid and si_uid should be valid,
and that si_addr does not exist.
Being at odds with the definition of SI_KERNEL and with nothing to
indicate that this was a signal frame setup failure there is no way
for userspace to know that si_addr was filled out instead.
In practice failure to setup a signal frame is rare, and si_pid and
si_uid are always set to 0 when si_code is SI_KERNEL so I expect no
one has looked closely enough before to see this weirdness. Further
the only difference between force_sigsegv_info and the generic
force_sigsegv other than the return code is that force_sigsegv_info
stomps the si_uid and si_pid fields.
Remove the bug and simplify the code by using force_sigsegv in this
case just like other architectures.

Instead of generating a struct siginfo before calling arm64_notify_die
pass the signal number, tne sicode and the fault address into
arm64_notify_die and have it call force_sig_fault instead of
force_sig_info to let the generic code generate the struct siginfo.
This keeps code passing just the needed information into
siginfo generating code, making it easier to see what
is happening and harder to get wrong. Further by letting
the generic code handle the generation of struct siginfo
it reduces the number of sites generating struct siginfo
making it possible to review them and verify that all
of the fiddly details for a structure passed to userspace
are handled properly.
