Stateful CPU architecture extensions may require the signal frame to grow to a size that exceeds the arch's MINSIGSTKSZ #define. However, changing this #define is an ABI break. To allow userspace the option of determining the signal frame size in a more forwards-compatible way, this patch adds a new auxv entry tagged with AT_MINSIGSTKSZ, which provides the maximum signal frame size that the process can observe during its lifetime. If AT_MINSIGSTKSZ is absent from the aux vector, the caller can assume that the MINSIGSTKSZ #define is sufficient. This allows for a consistent interface with older kernels that do not provide AT_MINSIGSTKSZ. The idea is that libc could expose this via sysconf() or some similar mechanism. There is deliberately no AT_SIGSTKSZ. The kernel knows nothing about userspace's own stack overheads and should not pretend to know. For arm64: The primary motivation for this interface is the Scalable Vector Extension, which can require at least 4KB or so of extra space in the signal frame for the largest hardware implementations. To determine the correct value, a "Christmas tree" mode (via the add_all argument) is added to setup_sigframe_layout(), to simulate addition of all possible records to the signal frame at maximum possible size. If this procedure goes wrong somehow, resulting in a stupidly large frame layout and hence failure of sigframe_alloc() to allocate a record to the frame, then this is indicative of a kernel bug: the kernel's internal SIGFRAME_MAXSZ is supposed to sanity-check against generting frames that we consider _impossibly_ large. In this case, SIGSTKSZ is returned as a "reasonable guess that is at least bigger than MINSIGSTKSZ" and we WARN().
