Subject: [PATCH] parisc: Report SIGSEGV instead of SIGBUS when running out of stack
Date: Sun, 2 Jul 2017 22:00:41 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170702200041.GA15902@p100.box> (raw)
When a process runs out of stack the parisc kernel wrongly faults with SIGBUS
instead of the expected SIGSEGV signal.
This example shows how the kernel faults:
do_page_fault() command='a.out' type=15 address=0xfaac2000 in libc-2.24.so[f8308000+16c000]
trap #15: Data TLB miss fault, vm_start = 0xfa2c2000, vm_end = 0xfaac2000
The vma->vm_end value is the first address which does not belong to the vma, so
adjust the check to include vma->vm_end to the range for which to send the
SIGSEGV signal.
This patch unbreaks building the debian libsegv package.
