Sergey Bugaev 60b21327b1 hurd: Remove the ecx kludge
"We don't need it any more"

The INTR_MSG_TRAP macro in intr-msg.h used to play little trick with
the stack pointer: it would temporarily save the "real" stack pointer
into ecx, while setting esp to point to just before the message buffer,
and then invoke the mach_msg trap. This way, INTR_MSG_TRAP reused the
on-stack arguments laid out for the containing call of
_hurd_intr_rpc_mach_msg (), passing them to the mach_msg trap directly.

This, however, required special support in hurdsig.c and trampoline.c,
since they now had to recognize when a thread is inside the piece of
code where esp doesn't point to the real tip of the stack, and handle
this situation specially.

Commit 1d20f33ff4fb634310f27493b7b87d0b20f4a0b0 has removed the actual
temporary change of esp by actually re-pushing mach_msg arguments onto
the stack, and popping them back at end. It did not, however, deal with
the rest of "the ecx kludge" code in other files, resulting in potential
crashes if a signal arrives in the middle of pushing arguments onto the
stack.

Fix that by removing "the ecx kludge". Instead, when we want a thread
to skip the RPC, but cannot make just make it jump to after the trap
since it's not done adjusting the stack yet, set the SYSRETURN register
to MACH_SEND_INTERRUPTED (as we do anyway), and rely on the thread
itself for detecting this case and skipping the RPC.

This simplifies things somewhat and paves the way for a future x86_64
port of this code.

This directory contains the sources of the GNU C Library.
See the file "version.h" for what release version you have.

The GNU C Library is the standard system C library for all GNU systems,
and is an important part of what makes up a GNU system.  It provides the
system API for all programs written in C and C-compatible languages such
as C++ and Objective C; the runtime facilities of other programming
languages use the C library to access the underlying operating system.

In GNU/Linux systems, the C library works with the Linux kernel to
implement the operating system behavior seen by user applications.
In GNU/Hurd systems, it works with a microkernel and Hurd servers.

The GNU C Library implements much of the POSIX.1 functionality in the
GNU/Hurd system, using configurations i[4567]86-*-gnu.

When working with Linux kernels, this version of the GNU C Library
requires Linux kernel version 3.2 or later.

Also note that the shared version of the libgcc_s library must be
installed for the pthread library to work correctly.

The GNU C Library supports these configurations for using Linux kernels:

	aarch64*-*-linux-gnu
	alpha*-*-linux-gnu
	arc*-*-linux-gnu
	arm-*-linux-gnueabi
	csky-*-linux-gnuabiv2
	hppa-*-linux-gnu
	i[4567]86-*-linux-gnu
	x86_64-*-linux-gnu	Can build either x86_64 or x32
	ia64-*-linux-gnu
	loongarch64-*-linux-gnu Hardware floating point, LE only.
	m68k-*-linux-gnu
	microblaze*-*-linux-gnu
	mips-*-linux-gnu
	mips64-*-linux-gnu
	or1k-*-linux-gnu
	powerpc-*-linux-gnu	Hardware or software floating point, BE only.
	powerpc64*-*-linux-gnu	Big-endian and little-endian.
	s390-*-linux-gnu
	s390x-*-linux-gnu
	riscv32-*-linux-gnu
	riscv64-*-linux-gnu
	sh[34]-*-linux-gnu
	sparc*-*-linux-gnu
	sparc64*-*-linux-gnu

If you are interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc
maintainers; see https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ for more
information.

See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, and install
the GNU C Library.  You might also consider reading the WWW pages for
the C library at https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/.

The GNU C Library is (almost) completely documented by the Texinfo manual
found in the `manual/' subdirectory.  The manual is still being updated
and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not
have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like.  For
corrections to the manual, please file a bug in the `manual' component,
following the bug-reporting instructions below.  Please be sure to check
the manual in the current development sources to see if your problem has
already been corrected.

Please see https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html for bug reporting
information.  We are now using the Bugzilla system to track all bug reports.
This web page gives detailed information on how to report bugs properly.

The GNU C Library is free software.  See the file COPYING.LIB for copying
conditions, and LICENSES for notices about a few contributions that require
these additional notices to be distributed.  License copyright years may be
listed using range notation, e.g., 1996-2015, indicating that every year in
the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that would otherwise be listed
individually.
