i386: Fix i386 sigaction sa_restorer initialization (BZ#21269)
This patch fixes the i386 sa_restorer field initialization for sigaction syscall for kernel with vDSO. As described in bug report, i386 Linux (and compat on x86_64) interprets SA_RESTORER clear with nonzero sa_restorer as a request for stack switching if the SS segment is 'funny'. This means that anything that tries to mix glibc's signal handling with segmentation (for instance through modify_ldt syscall) is randomly broken depending on what values lands in sa_restorer. The testcase added is based on Linux test tools/testing/selftests/x86/ldt_gdt.c, more specifically in do_multicpu_tests function. The main changes are: - C11 atomics instead of plain access. - Remove x86_64 support which simplifies the syscall handling and fallbacks. - Replicate only the test required to trigger the issue. Checked on i686-linux-gnu. [BZ #21269] * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/Makefile (tests): Add tst-bz21269. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/sigaction.c (SET_SA_RESTORER): Clear sa_restorer for vDSO case. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/i386/tst-bz21269.c: New file. (cherry picked from commit 68448be2)
