Subject: [PATCH v4 0/2] arm64: signal: Report signal frame size to userspace via auxv
Date: Wed, 23 May 2018 18:46:54 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1527097616-25214-1-git-send-email-Dave.Martin@arm.com> (raw)
This series adds support for telling userspace the size of the signal
frame via a new AT_MINSIGSTKSZ entry in the aux vector.
This is an update to a previous v3 standalone patch [1], which is
presented here as patch 2 with some updates in response to review.
See the changelog in the patch for details.
Patch 1 is new, and thins out some WARN_ON() checks for timely
initialisation of sve_max_vl that now look excessive, to strengthen
the case for not adding more such checks in patch 2.
