Bobby Bingham 2610c7faa7 ppc32/64: rewrite get/set/swapcontext in assembly
getcontext cannot be correctly implemented in C.

If this calls another function, as it does to call syscall, it needs to
first spill its return address to the stack.  If, after getcontext returns,
its caller then calls other functions, this saved return address can be
clobbered.  When the context saved by getcontext is later restored, the
(now clobbered) return address will be reloaded from the stack, and the
second return from getcontext will return to the wrong location.

Because the powerpc swapcontext syscall allows either the old context or
new context pointers to be null, it is usable for implementing all of
get/set/swapcontext.

We therefore rewrite swapcontext in assembly, and get/setcontext as simple
assembly function wrappers around swapcontext.

The one piece we keep in C is the code to check the return value of the
system call and to set errno.  This code was actually unnecessary before --
libc does this within syscall.  However, now that the system call is made
directly in assembly, bypassing libc, it is truly necessary.  Because errno
is thread-local and the details of how to set it can vary by libc, this
code remains written in C.

Bobby Bingham 40d07758a5 ppc32/64: correct signature of function parameter to makecontext
Because makecontext can pass a set of integer arguments to the provided
function, it is incorrect to require that this function accept no
parameters.

Bobby Bingham a00a05ce29 ppc64: fix incorrect position of parameters within stack frame
On PPC64, there are 4 register-sized stack slots below the parameter save
area, which is different from the 2 stack slots on PPC32.

Bobby Bingham 8ea5f548b9 ppc64: fix makecontext with more than 8 parameters
The ELFv2 ABI used on PPC64 differs from the ELFv1 ABI used on PPC32 here.
On PPC64, once there are any parameters that need to be passed on the
stack, space needs to be reserved on the stack to pass all parameters.
Parameters 0-7 are still only passed by register, but if the callee needs
to spill them, it can use the stack space reserved for the corresponding
parameter to do so.

Bobby Bingham 55168fcb18 ppc32/64: simplify storage of stack parameters
The switch statement is simpler as an if/else, and removing the argp
variable makes the code more symmetric between the register and stack
parameter cases.

Bobby Bingham b500b054c7 ppc32/64: don't store uc_link on the stack
This was previously stored either in the CR (ppc64) or LR (ppc32) save
area of the stack, or to one of the parameter save slots.

In either case, the saved value was unused.  This value is also passed
to __start_context via r31, so there's no need to pass it on the stack.

Bobby Bingham b9bd4045fb ppc32/64: fix back chain pointer
The ABI states that sp[0] should point to the previous stack frame, or be
zero if there is no previous stack frame.  makecontext previously set this
slot to point to the __start_context function, rather than to a valid
stack frame.

Reorder registers in other x86_64 assembler files
This fixes the previous commit which changed the register order in
swapcontext only, which caused setcontext to subtly corrupt the stack.

fix x86_64 register order for swapcontext
2018-07-19 00:33:12 -05:00
Timo Teräs 790ed28aff fix x86_64 register order for swapcontext
rbp and rsi were reversed causing argument passing to fail since
rsi is used to pass 2nd argument.
