Subject: What is i386 thread.trapno?
Date: Sat, 02 Jun 2001 21:31:42 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200106030231.VAA03708@ccure.karaya.com> (raw)

With a normal segfault, the handler gets a trapno == 14 in the sigcontext.  
With UML, I can make a process infinitely segfault with trapno == 1.  The page 
being accessed is correctly mapped in according to /proc/<pid>/maps, so the 
odd trapno is the only clue that I can see that something is different.

The i386 page fault handler sets trap_no to 14, so the fault isn't coming from 
there, but I can't see where a SIGSEGV is being delivered to a process with 
thread.trap_no == 1.

So:
	What do these trap numbers mean?
	Where can I read about them?
and
	Where's this segfault coming from?
