Commit Message

Adhemerval Zanella Oct. 14, 2019, 8:56 p.m. UTC
This patch adds the i386 modifications required for the BZ#12683 fix
by adding the arch-specific cancellation syscall bridge.

The syscall bridge uses the old int80 instruction because by using
the optimized vDSO symbol the resulting PC value for an interrupted
syscall points to an adress outside the expected markers in
__syscall_cancel_arch.  It has been discussed in LKML [1] on how
kernel could help userland to accomplish it, but afaik discussion
has stalled.

Also, sysenter should not be used directly by libc since its calling
convention is set by the kernel depending of the underlying x86 chip
(check kernel commit 30bfa7b3488bfb1bb75c9f50a5fcac1832970c60).

Checked on i686-linux-gnu.
