Hello! The attached patch enables the sigaltstack syscall in qemu-sh4.
The following minimal test code verifies that sigaltstack works as expected: ============================================================= #include <setjmp.h> #include <signal.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> jmp_buf exit_jmp; void handler(int x) { longjmp(exit_jmp, 1); } int f(void) { return f(); } int main(void) { stack_t sigstack; sigstack.ss_sp = malloc(1024*1024); sigstack.ss_size = 1024*1024; sigstack.ss_flags = 0; sigaltstack(&sigstack, NULL); struct sigaction sa; sa.sa_handler = handler; sigemptyset(&sa.sa_mask); sa.sa_flags = SA_ONSTACK; sigaction(SIGSEGV, &sa, NULL); if (setjmp(exit_jmp) == 0) { return f(); } puts("recovered"); return 0; } ============================================================= Without sigaltstack enabled, this code produces a segmentation fault. With sigaltstack enabled, it prints out "recovered".

I'm currently testing qemu as a possibility to set up a buildd for the Debian sh4 port. I set up qemu and an sh4 chroot as described in the Debian Wiki [1]. This seems to be working mostly fine (besides the fact that qemu segfaults on an amd64 host while it runs fine on an i386 host, I'll file a separate bug report). However, when installing python3.4 in the sh4 chroot, qemu repeatedly printed an error message about an unimplemented syscall: 186: qemu: Unsupported syscall: 186 From the source code in linux-user/sh4/syscall_nr.h it's apparent that 186 is defined as #define TARGET_NR_sigaltstack 186 Looking at the implementation part, it becomes obvious that this syscall is not enabled for sh4: #if defined(TARGET_I386) || defined(TARGET_ARM) || defined(TARGET_MIPS) || \ defined(TARGET_SPARC) || defined(TARGET_PPC) || defined(TARGET_ALPHA) || \ defined(TARGET_M68K) || defined(TARGET_S390X) || defined(TARGET_OPENRISC) ret = do_sigaltstack(arg1, arg2, get_sp_from_cpustate((CPUArchState *)cpu_env)); break; #else goto unimplemented; #endif Is there any particular reason why TARGET_NR_sigaltstack is not enabled on sh4? If not, could you enable it? Thanks, Adrian > [1] https://wiki.debian.org/QemuUserEmulation To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1516408/+subscriptions
