In the fpsp040 code when copyin or copyout fails call force_sigsegv(SIGSEGV) instead of do_exit(SIGSEGV). This solves a couple of problems. Because do_exit embeds the ptrace stop PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT a complete stack frame needs to be present for that to work correctly. There is always the information needed for a ptrace stop where get_signal is called. So exiting with a signal solves the ptrace issue. Further exiting with a signal ensures that all of the threads in a process are killed not just the thread that malfunctioned. Which avoids confusing userspace. To make force_sigsegv(SIGSEGV) work in fpsp040_die modify the code to save all of the registers and jump to ret_from_exception (which ultimately calls get_signal) after fpsp040_die returns. v2: Updated the branches to use gas's pseudo ops that automatically calculate the best branch instruction to use for the purpose. v1: Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/87a6m8kgtx.fsf_-_@disp2133 Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
