+ *
+ * Kernels that set UC_SIGCONTEXT_SS will also set UC_STRICT_RESTORE_SS
+ * when delivering a signal that came from 64-bit code.
+ *
+ * Sigreturn restores SS as follows:
+ *
+ * if (saved SS is valid || UC_STRICT_RESTORE_SS is set ||
+ * saved CS is not 64-bit)
+ * new SS = saved SS (will fail IRET and signal if invalid)
+ * else

+ *
+ * This behavior serves three purposes:
+ *
+ * - Legacy programs that construct a 64-bit sigcontext from scratch
+ * with zero or garbage in the SS slot (e.g. old CRIU) and call
+ * sigreturn will still work.
+ *
+ * - Old DOSEMU versions sometimes catch a signal from a segmented
+ * context, delete the old SS segment (with modify_ldt), and change
+ * the saved CS to a 64-bit segment. These DOSEMU versions expect
+ * sigreturn to send them back to 64-bit mode without killing them,
+ * despite the fact that the SS selector when the signal was raised is
+ * no longer valid. UC_STRICT_RESTORE_SS will be clear, so the kernel
+ * will fix up SS for these DOSEMU versions.
+ *
+ * - Old and new programs that catch a signal and return without
+ * modifying the saved context will end up in exactly the state they
+ * started in, even if they were running in a segmented context when
+ * the signal was raised.. Old kernels would lose track of the
+ * previous SS value.
