From 95bf9d646c3c3f95cb0be7e703b371db8da5be68 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Eric W. Biederman" Date: Wed, 20 Oct 2021 12:43:51 -0500 Subject: signal/mips: Update (_save|_restore)_fp_context to fail with -EFAULT When an instruction to save or restore a register from the stack fails in _save_fp_context or _restore_fp_context return with -EFAULT. This change was made to r2300_fpu.S[1] but it looks like it got lost with the introduction of EX2[2]. This is also what the other implementation of _save_fp_context and _restore_fp_context in r4k_fpu.S does, and what is needed for the callers to be able to handle the error. Furthermore calling do_exit(SIGSEGV) from bad_stack is wrong because it does not terminate the entire process it just terminates a single thread. As the changed code was the only caller of arch/mips/kernel/syscall.c:bad_stack remove the problematic and now unused helper function.
