signal: Add an optional check for altstack size
New x86 FPU features will be very large, requiring ~10k of stack in signal handlers. These new features require a new approach called "dynamic features". The kernel currently tries to ensure that altstacks are reasonably sized. Right now, on x86, sys_sigaltstack() requires a size of >=2k. However, that 2k is a constant. Simply raising that 2k requirement to >10k for the new features would break existing apps which have a compiled-in size of 2k. Instead of universally enforcing a larger stack, prohibit a process from using dynamic features without properly-sized altstacks. This must be enforced in two places: * A dynamic feature can not be enabled without an large-enough altstack for each process thread. * Once a dynamic feature is enabled, any request to install a too-small altstack will be rejected The dynamic feature enabling code must examine each thread in a process to ensure that the altstacks are large enough. Add a new lock (sigaltstack_lock()) to ensure that threads can not race and change their altstack after being examined. Add the infrastructure in form of a config option and provide empty stubs for architectures which do not need dynamic altstack size checks. This implementation will be fleshed out for x86 in a future patch called x86/arch_prctl: Add controls for dynamic XSTATE components [dhansen: commit message. ] Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Chang S.
