Hi,

My colleague finds that there is probably a bug in handle_sys:

.align 5
NESTED(handle_sys, PT_SIZE, sp)
.set noat
SAVE_SOME
STI
.set at

lw t1, PT_EPC(sp) # skip syscall on return

sltiu t0, v0, MAX_SYSCALL_NO + 1 # check syscall number
addiu t1, 4 # skip to next instruction
beqz t0, illegal_syscall
sw t1, PT_EPC(sp)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This code is not guarded by .set no reorder,so it won't be the delay slot
instruction,thus illegal_syscall with num > MAX_SYSCALL_NO will return with
EPC unchanged. The reason it works is that the syscall number register 
v0 will
be changed to ENOSYS. ENOSYS is fortunately another illegal syscall number
that will take another illegal_syscall return path.

Newer glibc of debian(2.3.2+?) will generate sys_4246,and that lead to real
problem for mips64. Put the line ahead of the beqz solve it.

Hi,all

It seems the fix is a little more complex than I had thought
because we've to make sure every configuration works,so a patch
is attached below.
And during the reading of related code,we can't find code in mips64
to ensure correct handle of too small a syscall number? For mips we
have reserved space for nr<4000,but now it seems random. Do we need to
fix that too?
