[PATCH v2] LoongArch: Add safer signal handler for TLS access
From: Mao Bibo
Date: Wed Aug 31 2022 - 03:50:05 EST
LoongArch uses general purpose register R2 as thread pointer(TP)
register, signal hanlder also uses TP register to access variables
in TLS area, such as errno and variable in TLS.
If GPR R2 is modified with wrong value, signal handler still uses
the wrong TP register, so signal hanlder is insafe to access TLS
variable.
This patch adds one arch specific syscall set_thread_area, and
restore previoud TP value before signal handler, so that signal
handler is safe to access TLS variable.
It passes to run with the following test case.
