2016-07-07linux-user: Fix i386 safe-syscall.SRichard Henderson
Clang insists that "cmp" is ambiguous with a memory destination, requiring an explicit size suffix. There was a true error in the use of .cfi_def_cfa_offset in the epilogue, but changing to use the proper .cfi_adjust_cfa_offset runs afoul of a clang bug wrt .cfi_restore_state. Better to fold the two epilogues so that we don't trigger the bug. Signed-off-by: Richard Henderson <rth@twiddle.net>

2016-06-26linux-user: Create a hostdep.h for each host architecturePeter Maydell
In commit 4d330cee37a21 a new hostdep.h file was added, with the intent that host architectures which needed one could provide it, and the build system would automatically fall back to a generic version if there was no version for the host architecture. Although this works, it has a flaw: if a subsequent commit switches an architecture from "uses generic/hostdep.h" to "uses its own hostdep.h" nothing in the makefile dependencies notices this and so doing a rebuild without a manual 'make clean' will fail. So we drop the idea of having a 'generic' version in favour of every architecture we support having its own hostdep.h, even if it doesn't have anything in it. (There are only thirteen of these.) If the dependency files claim that an object file depends on a nonexistent file, our dependency system means that make will rebuild the object file, and regenerate the dependencies in the process. So moving between trees prior to this commit and trees after this commit works without requiring a 'make clean'.

2016-06-08linux-user: provide frame information in x86-64 safe_syscallPeter Maydell
Use cfi directives in the x86-64 safe_syscall to allow gdb to get backtraces right from within it. (In particular this will be quite a common situation if the user interrupts QEMU while it's in a blocked safe-syscall: at the point of the syscall insn RBP is in use for something else, and so gdb can't find the frame then without assistance.)

2016-05-27linux-user: Provide safe_syscall for fixing races between signals and syscallsTimothy E Baldwin
If a signal is delivered immediately before a blocking system call the handler will only be called after the system call returns, which may be a long time later or never. This is fixed by using a function (safe_syscall) that checks if a guest signal is pending prior to making a system call, and if so does not call the system call and returns -TARGET_ERESTARTSYS. If a signal is received between the check and the system call host_signal_handler() rewinds execution to before the check. This rewinding has the effect of closing the race window so that safe_syscall will reliably either (a) go into the host syscall with no unprocessed guest signals pending or or (b) return -TARGET_ERESTARTSYS so that the caller can deal with the signals. Implementing this requires a per-host-architecture assembly language fragment. This will also resolve the mishandling of the SA_RESTART flag where we would restart a host system call and not call the guest signal handler until the syscall finally completed -- syscall restarting now always happens at the guest syscall level so the guest signal handler will run. (The host syscall will never be restarted because if the host kernel rewinds the PC to point at the syscall insn for a restart then our host_signal_handler() will see this and arrange the guest PC rewind.) This commit contains the infrastructure for implementing safe_syscall and the assembly language fragment for x86-64, but does not change any syscalls to use it.
