2007-06-14[POWERPC] Less ifdef's in signal.c/signal.hBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch moves things around a little bit in the new common signal.c and signal.h files to remove the last #ifdef in the middle of the common do_signal(). Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2007-06-14[POWERPC] Merge creation of signal frameBenjamin Herrenschmidt
The code for creating signal frames was still duplicated and split in strange ways between 32 and 64 bits, including the SA_ONSTACK handling being in do_signal on 32 bits but inside handle_rt_signal on 64 bits etc... This moves the 64 bits get_sigframe() to the generic signal.c, cleans it a bit, moves the access_ok() call done by all callers to it as well, and adapts/cleanups the 3 different signal handling cases to use that common function.

2007-06-14[POWERPC] Consolidate do_signalChristoph Hellwig
do_signal has exactly the same behaviour on 32bit and 64bit and 32bit compat on 64bit for handling 32bit signals. Consolidate all these into one common function in signal.c. The only odd left over is the try_to_free in the 32bit version that no other architecture has in mainline (only in i386 for some odd SuSE release). We should probably get rid of it in a separate patch.

2007-06-14[POWERPC] Consolidate restore_sigmaskChristoph Hellwig
restore_sigmask is exactly the same on 32 and 64bit, so move it to common code. Also move _BLOCKABLE to signal.h to avoid defining it multiple times.

2007-06-14[POWERPC] Make syscall restart code more commonBenjamin Herrenschmidt
This patch moves the code in signal_32.c and signal_64.c for handling syscall restart into a common signal.c file and converge around a single implementation that is based on the 32 bits one, using trap, ccr and r3 rather than the special "result" field for deciding what to do. The "result" field is now pretty much deprecated. We still set it for the sake of whatever might rely on it in userland but we no longer use it's content. This, along with a previous patch that enables ptracers to write to "trap" and "orig_r3" should allow gdb to properly handle syscall restarting.
