   Signal handling.

   There are 4 distinct classes of signal:

   1. Synchronous, instruction-generated (SIGILL, FPE, BUS, SEGV and
   TRAP): these are signals as a result of an instruction fault.  If
   we get one while running client code, then we just do the
   appropriate thing.  If it happens while running Valgrind code, then
   it indicates a Valgrind bug.  Note that we "manually" implement
   automatic stack growth, such that if a fault happens near the
   client process stack, it is extended in the same way the kernel
   would, and the fault is never reported to the client program.

   2. Asynchronous variants of the above signals: If the kernel tries
   to deliver a sync signal while it is blocked, it just kills the
   process.  Therefore, we can't block those signals if we want to be
   able to report on bugs in Valgrind.  This means that we're also
   open to receiving those signals from other processes, sent with
   kill.  We could get away with just dropping them, since they aren't
   really signals that processes send to each other.

   3. Synchronous, general signals.  If a thread/process sends itself
   a signal with kill, its expected to be synchronous: ie, the signal
   will have been delivered by the time the syscall finishes.
   
   4. Asynchronous, general signals.  All other signals, sent by
   another process with kill.  These are generally blocked, except for
   two special cases: we poll for them each time we're about to run a
   thread for a time quanta, and while running blocking syscalls.


   In addition, we reserve one signal for internal use: SIGVGKILL.
   SIGVGKILL is used to terminate threads.  When one thread wants
   another to exit, it will set its exitreason and send it SIGVGKILL
   if it appears to be blocked in a syscall.


   We use a kernel thread for each application thread.  When the
   thread allows itself to be open to signals, it sets the thread
   signal mask to what the client application set it to.  This means
   that we get the kernel to do all signal routing: under Valgrind,
   signals get delivered in the same way as in the non-Valgrind case
   (the exception being for the sync signal set, since they're almost
   always unblocked).
 */

/*
   Some more details...

   First off, we take note of the client's requests (via sys_sigaction
   and sys_sigprocmask) to set the signal state (handlers for each
   signal, which are process-wide, + a mask for each signal, which is
   per-thread).  This info is duly recorded in the SCSS (static Client
   signal state) in m_signals.c, and if the client later queries what
   the state is, we merely fish the relevant info out of SCSS and give
   it back.

   However, we set the real signal state in the kernel to something
   entirely different.  This is recorded in SKSS, the static Kernel
   signal state.  What's nice (to the extent that anything is nice w.r.t
   signals) is that there's a pure function to calculate SKSS from SCSS,
   calculate_SKSS_from_SCSS.  So when the client changes SCSS then we
   recompute the associated SKSS and apply any changes from the previous
   SKSS through to the kernel.

   Now, that said, the general scheme we have now is, that regardless of
   what the client puts into the SCSS (viz, asks for), what we would
   like to do is as follows:

   (1) run code on the virtual CPU with all signals blocked

   (2) at convenient moments for us (that is, when the VCPU stops, and
      control is back with the scheduler), ask the kernel "do you have
      any signals for me?"  and if it does, collect up the info, and
      deliver them to the client (by building sigframes).

   And that's almost what we do.  The signal polling is done by
   VG_(poll_signals), which calls through to VG_(sigtimedwait_zero) to
   do the dirty work.  (of which more later).

   By polling signals, rather than catching them, we get to deal with
   them only at convenient moments, rather than having to recover from
   taking a signal while generated code is running.

   Now unfortunately .. the above scheme only works for so-called async
   signals.  An async signal is one which isn't associated with any
   particular instruction, eg Control-C (SIGINT).  For those, it doesn't
   matter if we don't deliver the signal to the client immediately; it
   only matters that we deliver it eventually.  Hence polling is OK.

   But the other group -- sync signals -- are all related by the fact
   that they are various ways for the host CPU to fail to execute an
   instruction: SIGILL, SIGSEGV, SIGFPU.  And they can't be deferred,
   because obviously if a host instruction can't execute, well then we
   have to immediately do Plan B, whatever that is.

   So the next approximation of what happens is:

   (1) run code on vcpu with all async signals blocked

   (2) at convenient moments (when NOT running the vcpu), poll for async
      signals.

   (1) and (2) together imply that if the host does deliver a signal to
      async_signalhandler while the VCPU is running, something's
      seriously wrong.

   (3) when running code on vcpu, don't block sync signals.  Instead
      register sync_signalhandler and catch any such via that.  Of
      course, that means an ugly recovery path if we do -- the
      sync_signalhandler has to longjump, exiting out of the generated
      code, and the assembly-dispatcher thingy that runs it, and gets
      caught in m_scheduler, which then tells m_signals to deliver the
      signal.

   Now naturally (ha ha) even that might be tolerable, but there's
   something worse: dealing with signals delivered to threads in
   syscalls.

   Obviously from the above, SKSS's signal mask (viz, what we really run
   with) is way different from SCSS's signal mask (viz, what the client
   thread thought it asked for).  (eg) It may well be that the client
   did not block control-C, so that it just expects to drop dead if it
   receives ^C whilst blocked in a syscall, but by default we are
   running with all async signals blocked, and so that signal could be
   arbitrarily delayed, or perhaps even lost (not sure).

   So what we have to do, when doing any syscall which SfMayBlock, is to
   quickly switch in the SCSS-specified signal mask just before the
   syscall, and switch it back just afterwards, and hope that we don't
   get caught up in some weird race condition.  This is the primary
   purpose of the ultra-magical pieces of assembly code in
   coregrind/m_syswrap/syscall-<plat>.S

   -----------

   The ways in which V can come to hear of signals that need to be
   forwarded to the client as are follows:

    sync signals: can arrive at any time whatsoever.  These are caught
                  by sync_signalhandler

    async signals:

       if    running generated code
       then  these are blocked, so we don't expect to catch them in
             async_signalhandler

       else
       if    thread is blocked in a syscall marked SfMayBlock
       then  signals may be delivered to async_sighandler, since we
             temporarily unblocked them for the duration of the syscall,
             by using the real (SCSS) mask for this thread

       else  we're doing misc housekeeping activities (eg, making a translation,
             washing our hair, etc).  As in the normal case, these signals are
             blocked, but we can  and do poll for them using VG_(poll_signals).

   Now, re VG_(poll_signals), it polls the kernel by doing
   VG_(sigtimedwait_zero).  This is trivial on Linux, since it's just a
   syscall.  But on Darwin and AIX, we have to cobble together the
   functionality in a tedious, longwinded and probably error-prone way.

   Finally, if a gdb is debugging the process under valgrind,
   the signal can be ignored if gdb tells this. So, before resuming the
   scheduler/delivering the signal, a call to VG_(gdbserver_report_signal)
   is done. If this returns True, the signal is delivered.

/* Q: what does VG_UCONTEXT_SYSCALL_SYSRES do?  A: let's suppose the
   machine context (uc) reflects the situation that a syscall had just
   completed, quite literally -- that is, that the program counter was
   now at the instruction following the syscall.  (or we're slightly
   downstream, but we're sure no relevant register has yet changed
   value.)  Then VG_UCONTEXT_SYSCALL_SYSRES returns a SysRes reflecting
   the result of the syscall; it does this by fishing relevant bits of
   the machine state out of the uc.  Of course if the program counter
   was somewhere else entirely then the result is likely to be
   meaningless, so the caller of VG_UCONTEXT_SYSCALL_SYSRES has to be
   very careful to pay attention to the results only when it is sure
   that the said constraint on the program counter is indeed valid. */

   Not quite... what is inline in the 2.4.20 version is a
   sigcontext_struct, not an mcontext.  The sigcontext looks like
   this:

     struct sigcontext_struct {
        unsigned long   _unused[4];
        int             signal;
        unsigned long   handler;
        unsigned long   oldmask;
        struct pt_regs  *regs;
     };

   The regs pointer of that struct ends up at the same offset as the
   uc_regs of the 2.6 struct ucontext, and a struct pt_regs is the
   same as the mc_gregs field of the mcontext.  In fact the integer
   regs are followed in memory by the floating point regs on 2.4.20.

   Thus if you are using the 2.6 definitions, it should work on 2.4.20
   provided that you go via uc->uc_regs rather than looking in
   uc->uc_mcontext directly.

   There is another subtlety: 2.4.20 doesn't save the vector regs when
   delivering a signal, and 2.6.x only saves the vector regs if the
   process has ever used an altivec instructions.  If 2.6.x does save
   the vector regs, it sets the MSR_VEC bit in
   uc->uc_regs->mc_gregs[PT_MSR], otherwise it clears it.  That bit
   will always be clear under 2.4.20.  So you can use that bit to tell
   whether uc->uc_regs->mc_vregs is valid. */
