powerpc/64/signal: Balance return predictor stack in signal trampoline
Returning from an interrupt or syscall to a signal handler currently
begins execution directly at the handler's entry point, with LR set to
the address of the sigreturn trampoline. When the signal handler
function returns, it runs the trampoline. It looks like this:
# interrupt at user address xyz
# kernel stuff... signal is raised
rfid
# void handler(int sig)
addis 2,12,.TOC.-.LCF0@ha
addi 2,2,.TOC.-.LCF0@l
mflr 0
std 0,16(1)
stdu 1,-96(1)
# handler stuff
ld 0,16(1)
mtlr 0
blr
# __kernel_sigtramp_rt64
addi r1,r1,__SIGNAL_FRAMESIZE
li r0,__NR_rt_sigreturn
sc
# kernel executes rt_sigreturn
rfid
# back to user address xyz
Note the blr with no matching bl. This can corrupt the return
predictor.
Solve this by instead resuming execution at the signal trampoline
which then calls the signal handler. qtrace-tools link_stack checker
confirms the entire user/kernel/vdso cycle is balanced after this
patch, whereas it's not upstream.
Alan confirms the dwarf unwind info still looks good. gdb still
recognises the signal frame and can step into parent frames if it
break inside a signal handler.
Performance is pretty noisy, not a very significant change on a POWER9
here, but branch misses are consistently a lot lower on a
microbenchmark:
