Subject: [PULL v2 7/8] linux-user/hppa: clear the PSW 'N' bit when delivering signals
Date: Tue, 19 Sep 2023 21:17:55 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230919191757.98889-8-deller@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230919191757.98889-1-deller@kernel.org>
From: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com>
qemu-hppa may crash when delivering a signal. It can be demonstrated with
this program. Compile the program with "hppa-linux-gnu-gcc -O2 signal.c"
and run it with "qemu-hppa -one-insn-per-tb a.out". It reports that the
address of the flag is 0xb4 and it crashes when attempting to touch it.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
#include <signal.h>
sig_atomic_t flag;
void sig(int n)
{
printf("&flag: %p\n", &flag);
flag = 1;
}
int main(void)
{
struct sigaction sa;
struct itimerval it;
sa.sa_handler = sig;
sigemptyset(&sa.sa_mask);
sa.sa_flags = SA_RESTART;
if (sigaction(SIGALRM, &sa, NULL)) perror("sigaction"), exit(1);
it.it_interval.tv_sec = 0;
it.it_interval.tv_usec = 100;
it.it_value.tv_sec = it.it_interval.tv_sec;
it.it_value.tv_usec = it.it_interval.tv_usec;
if (setitimer(ITIMER_REAL, &it, NULL)) perror("setitimer"), exit(1);
while (1) {
}
}
The reason for the crash is that the signal handling routine doesn't clear
the 'N' flag in the PSW. If the signal interrupts a thread when the 'N'
flag is set, the flag remains set at the beginning of the signal handler
and the first instruction of the signal handler is skipped.
