Al Viro noted that CRIS fails to handle multiple signals.
This fixes the problem for CRISv32 by making it use a C work_pending
handling loop similar to the ARM implementation in 0a267fa6a1
("ARM: 7472/1: pull all work_pending logics into C function").
This also happens to fixes the warnings which currently trigger on
CRISv32 due to do_signal() being called with interrupts disabled.
Test case (should die of the SIGSEGV which gets raised when setting up
the stack for SIGALRM, but instead reaches and executes the _exit(1)):
#include <unistd.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
#include <err.h>
static void handler(int sig) { }
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int ret;
struct itimerval t1 = { .it_value = {1} };
stack_t ss = {
.ss_sp = NULL,
.ss_size = SIGSTKSZ,
};
struct sigaction action = {
.sa_handler = handler,
.sa_flags = SA_ONSTACK,
};
ret = sigaltstack(&ss, NULL);
if (ret < 0)
err(1, "sigaltstack");
sigaction(SIGALRM, &action, NULL);

Al Viro noted that CRIS is vulnerable to bogus restarts on sigreturn.
The fixes CRISv32 by using regs->exs as an additional indicator to
whether we should attempt to restart the syscall or not. EXS is only
used in the sigtrap handling, and in that path we already have r9 (the
other indicator, which indicates if we're in a syscall or not) cleared.
Test case, a port of Al's ARM version from 653d48b221 ("arm: fix
really nasty sigreturn bug"):
#include <unistd.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/time.h>

r9 is used to determine whether syscall restarting must be performed or
not. Unfortunately, r9 is never set to zero in the non-syscall path,
and r9 is on top of that a callee-saved register which can be set to
non-zero by the C functions that are called during IRQ handling.
This means that if r10 (used for the syscall return value) is one of the
-ERESTART* values when a hardware interrupt occurs which leads to a
signal being delivered to the process, the kernel will "restart" a
syscall which never occurred. This will lead to the PC being moved back
by 2 on return to user space.
Fix the problem by setting r9 to zero in the interrupt path.
Test case (should loop forever but ends up executing the break 8 trap
instruction):
#include <signal.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/time.h>
void f(int n)
{
register int r9 asm ("r9") = 1;
register int r10 asm ("r10") = n;

"nop \n"
"break 8 \n"
"1: ba . \n"
"nop \n"
:
: "r" (r9), "r" (r10)
: "memory");
}
void handler1(int sig) { }
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
struct itimerval t1 = { .it_value = {1} };
signal(SIGALRM, handler1);

If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
the restart block is a very juicy exploit target. This is because the
restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.
Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
making the restart_block harder to locate.
Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
targets, at least on some architectures.
It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
identical on all architectures.

The core VM already knows about VM_FAULT_SIGBUS, but cannot return a
"you should SIGSEGV" error, because the SIGSEGV case was generally
handled by the caller - usually the architecture fault handler.
That results in lots of duplication - all the architecture fault
handlers end up doing very similar "look up vma, check permissions, do
retries etc" - but it generally works. However, there are cases where
the VM actually wants to SIGSEGV, and applications _expect_ SIGSEGV.
In particular, when accessing the stack guard page, libsigsegv expects a
SIGSEGV. And it usually got one, because the stack growth is handled by
that duplicated architecture fault handler.
However, when the generic VM layer started propagating the error return
from the stack expansion in commit fee7e49d45 ("mm: propagate error
from stack expansion even for guard page"), that now exposed the
existing VM_FAULT_SIGBUS result to user space. And user space really
expected SIGSEGV, not SIGBUS.
To fix that case, we need to add a VM_FAULT_SIGSEGV, and teach all those
duplicate architecture fault handlers about it. They all already have
the code to handle SIGSEGV, so it's about just tying that new return
value to the existing code, but it's all a bit annoying.
This is the mindless minimal patch to do this. A more extensive patch
would be to try to gather up the mostly shared fault handling logic into
one generic helper routine, and long-term we really should do that
cleanup.
Just from this patch, you can generally see that most architectures just
copied (directly or indirectly) the old x86 way of doing things, but in
the meantime that original x86 model has been improved to hold the VM
semaphore for shorter times etc and to handle VM_FAULT_RETRY and other
"newer" things, so it would be a good idea to bring all those
improvements to the generic case and teach other architectures about
them too.

Alternative to RPS/RFS is to use hardware support for multiple
queues.
Then split a set of million of sockets into worker threads, each
one using epoll() to manage events on its own socket pool.
Ideally, we want one thread per RX/TX queue/cpu, but we have no way to
know after accept() or connect() on which queue/cpu a socket is managed.
We normally use one cpu per RX queue (IRQ smp_affinity being properly
set), so remembering on socket structure which cpu delivered last packet
is enough to solve the problem.
After accept(), connect(), or even file descriptor passing around
processes, applications can use :
int cpu;
socklen_t len = sizeof(cpu);
getsockopt(fd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_INCOMING_CPU, &cpu, &len);
And use this information to put the socket into the right silo
for optimal performance, as all networking stack should run
on the appropriate cpu, without need to send IPI (RPS/RFS).
