That seems bad? If we don't allocate space for POR_EL0, I think the program recieves SIGSGEV? setup_sigframe_layout() if (system_supports_poe()) { err = sigframe_alloc(user, &user->poe_offset, sizeof(struct poe_context)); if (err) return err; } Through get_sigframe() and setup_rt_frame(), that eventually hets here: handle_signal() ret = setup_rt_frame(usig, ksig, oldset, regs); [..] signal_setup_done(ret, ksig, test_thread_flag(TIF_SINGLESTEP)); void signal_setup_done(int failed, struct ksignal *ksig, int stepping) { if (failed) force_sigsegv(ksig->sig); else signal_delivered(ksig, stepping); } So I think it's "fine"?
