[PATCH] m68knommu: fix a5 reg corruption in signal handlers
This is a patch adapted from a posting by Andrea Tarani which was pointed out to me by Bernardo Innocenti. Thanks to both of them for their help and patience. The original posting is here: http://mailman.uclinux.org/pipermail/uclinux-dev/2005-July/033543.html The problem first manifest itself as busybox ping terminating with an "Illegal instruction". I reduced this to a test case and found that variable size arrays allocated on the stack could lead to stacks not aligned on 32 bit boundaries. For the Coldfire this proved fatal. Having been pointed out this patch by Bernardo, I applied it and it fixed the first test case. I then went back to busybox's ping. This still failed with "Illegal instruction", but in a different way. Before it depended on the size allocated for the ping buffer, now it happened every time. I also found it depended on optimisation level (gcc-3.4.0) -Os was okay but not -O2. After a lot of looking, it turned out that register a5 was being corrupted by the signal handler (after applying the patch). I re-worked the patch a bit to save/restore a5 and now all seems well.
