From 7553131847151d04d58a02300673f13d73861cbb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joseph Myers Date: Mon, 5 Jun 2017 10:17:46 +0000 Subject: Fix struct sigaltstack namespace (bug 21517). glibc defines the stack_t type with the tag struct sigaltstack. This is not permitted by POSIX; sigaltstack is only reserved with file scope in the namespace of ordinary identifiers, not the tag namespace, and in the case where stack_t is obtained from ucontext.h rather than signal.h, it's not reserved with file scope at all. This patch removes the tag accordingly and updates uses in glibc of struct sigaltstack. This is similar to the removal of the "struct siginfo" tag a few years ago: C++ name mangling changes are an unavoidable consequence. A NEWS item is added to note the changed mangling. There is inevitably some risk of breaking builds of anything that relies on the struct sigaltstack name (though the first few hits I looked at from codesearch.debian.net generally seemed to involve code that could use the stack_t name conditionally, so depending on how they determine the conditionals they may work with glibc not defining the struct tag anyway). Tested for x86_64 and x86, and with build-many-glibcs.py.
