[PATCH] arm64: add alignment fault hanling

[PATCH] arm64: add alignment fault hanling

[EunTaik Lee]

Userspace memory is mapped as below:
F2A7F000--F2A7FFFF Normal Memory
F2A80000--F2A80FFF Device nGnRnE

And that userspace application makes a system call
as below:

-009 |do_strncpy_from_user(inline)
-009 |strncpy_from_user()
-010 |getname_flags()
-011 |user_path_at_empty()
-012 |user_path_at()
-013 |SYSC_faccessat(inline)
-013 |sys_faccessat()
-014 |__sys_trace(asm)
 --> |exception

The string spans from 0xF2A7FFC1 to 0xF2A7FFFB.

When do_strncpy_from_user() reads the last (unsigned long)
value, the alignement fault is triggered. The 8 byte
from 0xF2A7FFC1 spans to the next page that is mapped as
Device nGnRnE, which does not allow an unaligned access,
causes the abort.

The instruction which caused the alignment fault is registered
in the fixup table but the exception handler does not reach there.

This patch registers a alignment fault handler and fixes up the
pc if appropriate.
