Commit Message

Peter Maydell Sept. 10, 2019, 2:44 p.m. UTC
The set_swi_errno() function is called to capture the errno
from a host system call, so that we can return -1 from the
semihosting function and later allow the guest to get a more
specific error code with the SYS_ERRNO function. It comes in
two versions, one for user-only and one for softmmu. We forgot
to capture the errno in the softmmu version; fix the error.

(Semihosting calls directed to gdb are unaffected because
they go through a different code path that captures the
error return from the gdbstub call in arm_semi_cb() or
arm_semi_flen_cb().)

NB that a later commit will put in some cleanup of TaskState
that will let us reduce the duplication between the two
implementations of this function.

I appreciate that this is just moving things around but this will be
broken for -smp > 1 if two vCPUs make a syscall at the same time. For
linux-user this information is kept in ts->swi_errno which is
per-thread. Either we need a __thread version or find somewhere in
CPUARMState to store it.

The semihosting API has no concept of errno being per-CPU at all.
(It really predates SMP entirely, so nobody was thinking about
that, and in any case it's a debug API, not a serious-work one).
The assumption is that the guest is handling this somehow.

The errno interface is not very useful anyway since it doesn't
actually define any errno values, and it's even worse in our
implementation because we use the host errno values rather
than defining some clean target-specific set of values...
