[AArch64] make setcontext etc functions consistent with the kernel
since https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2014-04/msg00006.html setcontext etc is no longer tied to the kernel use of ucontext. in that patch the ucontext reserved space is not used consistently with the kernel abi: the d8,d9 pair is saved in the slot of q8. this is ok (*context functions work together), but probably not desirable (ucontexts created by the kernel and getcontext are subtly different). the fix just replaces dN with qN in the save/restore code, which does a bit more than needed (saves/restores the top half of qN that is not callee saved), but this should not be an issue (and avoids having to deal with endianness). (kernel fpsimd context layout: the first 64bit contains 0x210 the fpsimd context size and 0x46508001 the FPSIMD_MAGIC, the second 64bit is for fpsr and fpcr, and the rest is the 128bit q0..q31 registers). given d8=8.1, d9=9.1,... d15=15.1, the context created by getcontext is current: (gdb) x/40xg ctx.uc_mcontext.__reserved 0x410df0 <ctx+464>: 0x0000021046508001 0x0000000000000000 0x410e00 <ctx+480>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410e10 <ctx+496>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410e20 <ctx+512>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410e30 <ctx+528>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410e40 <ctx+544>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410e50 <ctx+560>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410e60 <ctx+576>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410e70 <ctx+592>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410e80 <ctx+608>: 0x4020333333333333 0x4022333333333333 0x410e90 <ctx+624>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410ea0 <ctx+640>: 0x4024333333333333 0x4026333333333333 0x410eb0 <ctx+656>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410ec0 <ctx+672>: 0x4028333333333333 0x402a333333333333 0x410ed0 <ctx+688>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410ee0 <ctx+704>: 0x402c333333333333 0x402e333333333333 0x410ef0 <ctx+720>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410f00 <ctx+736>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410f10 <ctx+752>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410f20 <ctx+768>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 fixed: (gdb) x/40xg ctx.uc_mcontext.__reserved 0x410d70 <ctx+464>: 0x0000021046508001 0x0000000000000000 0x410d80 <ctx+480>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410d90 <ctx+496>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410da0 <ctx+512>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410db0 <ctx+528>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410dc0 <ctx+544>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410dd0 <ctx+560>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410de0 <ctx+576>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410df0 <ctx+592>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410e00 <ctx+608>: 0x4020333333333333 0x0000000000000000 0x410e10 <ctx+624>: 0x4022333333333333 0x0000000000000000 0x410e20 <ctx+640>: 0x4024333333333333 0x0000000000000000 0x410e30 <ctx+656>: 0x4026333333333333 0x0000000000000000 0x410e40 <ctx+672>: 0x4028333333333333 0x0000000000000000 0x410e50 <ctx+688>: 0x402a333333333333 0x0000000000000000 0x410e60 <ctx+704>: 0x402c333333333333 0x0000000000000000 0x410e70 <ctx+720>: 0x402e333333333333 0x0000000000000000 0x410e80 <ctx+736>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410e90 <ctx+752>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x410ea0 <ctx+768>: 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 2015-07-06 Szabolcs Nagy <szabolcs.nagy@arm.com> * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64/getcontext.S (__getcontext): Use q registers instead of d ones so the layout is kernel abi compatible. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64/setcontext.S (__setcontext): Likewise. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64/swapcontext.S (__swapcontext): Likewise.# Please enter the commit message for your changes.
