[Bug 1791763] Re: broken signal handling in nios2 user-mode emulation

[Thomas Huth]

The QEMU project is currently considering to move its bug tracking to another 
system. For this we need to know which bugs are still valid and which could be 
closed already. Thus we are setting older bugs to "Incomplete" now.
If you still think this bug report here is valid, then please switch the state 
back to "New" within the next 60 days, otherwise this report will be marked as 
"Expired". Or mark it as "Fix Released" if the problem has been solved with a 
newer version of QEMU already. Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.

Title:
  broken signal handling in nios2 user-mode emulation

Status in QEMU:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This bug is against the 3.0 release.

  It appears that the signal handling parts of the nios2 user-mode
  emulation have never really been completed or tested.  Some examples
  of failing tests from the GCC testsuite are gcc.dg/pr78185.c and
  gcc.dg/cleanup-10.c.

  Some problems I've identified and tried to fix with the attached patch
  are:

  - Code copied from the Linux kernel wasn't adjusted to differentiate
  between host and target data types and address spaces.

  - The sigaltstack() system call returns EINVAL because fields are
  listed in the wrong order in struct target_sigaltstack.

  With this patch, the system calls to set up the signal handler are
  returning successfully, but the handler isn't being invoked, so
  something is still wrong.  I think I need another pair of eyes to look
  over this code.
