i386: Fix i386 sigaction sa_restorer initialization (BZ#21269)
This patch fixes the i386 sa_restorer field initialization for sigaction
syscall for kernel with vDSO. As described in bug report, i386 Linux
(and compat on x86_64) interprets SA_RESTORER clear with nonzero
sa_restorer as a request for stack switching if the SS segment is 'funny'.
This means that anything that tries to mix glibc's signal handling with
segmentation (for instance through modify_ldt syscall) is randomly broken
depending on what values lands in sa_restorer.
The testcase added is based on Linux test tools/testing/selftests/x86/ldt_gdt.c,
more specifically in do_multicpu_tests function. The main changes are:
- C11 atomics instead of plain access.
- Remove x86_64 support which simplifies the syscall handling and fallbacks.
- Replicate only the test required to trigger the issue.
Checked on i686-linux-gnu.
[BZ #21269]
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/Makefile (tests): Add tst-bz21269.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/sigaction.c (SET_SA_RESTORER): Clear
sa_restorer for vDSO case.
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/tst-bz21269.c: New file.
