sparc: Move sigreturn stub to assembly
Commit Message
It seems that some gcc versions might generates a stack frame for the
sigreturn stub requires on sparc signal handling. For instance:
$ cat test.c
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <sys/syscall.h>
__attribute__ ((__optimize__ ("-fno-stack-protector")))
void
__sigreturn_stub (void)
{
__asm__ ("mov %0, %%g1\n\t"
"ta 0x10\n\t"
: /* no outputs */
: "i" (SYS_rt_sigreturn));
}
$ gcc -v
[...]
gcc version 9.2.1 20200224 (Debian 9.2.1-30)
$ gcc -O2 -m64 test.c -S -o -
[...]
__sigreturn_stub:
save %sp, -176, %sp
#APP
! 9 "t.c" 1
mov 101, %g1
ta 0x10
! 0 "" 2
#NO_APP
.size __sigreturn_stub, .-__sigreturn_stub
As indicated by kernel developers [1], the sigreturn stub can not change
the register window or the stack pointer since the kernel has setup the
restore frame at a precise location relative to the stack pointer when
the stub is invoked.
I tried to play with some compiler flags and even with _Noreturn and
__builtin_unreachable after the asm does not help (and Sparc does not
support naked functions).
To avoid similar issues, as the stack-protector support also have
stumbled, this patch moves the implementation of the sigreturn stubs to
assembly.
Checked on sparcv9-linux-gnu and sparc64-linux-gnu with gcc 9.2.1
and gcc 7.5.0.

Could you add a comment explaining this to each of the new .S files?
"This function must not change the register window or the stack
pointer" would be enough, I think. Maybe include the URL for [1].

Ack, I pushed with your suggestion plus the URL link.
