The 64-bit entry code was using six stack slots less by not saving/restoring registers which are callee-preserved according to the C ABI, and was not allocating space for them. Only when syscalls needed a complete "struct pt_regs" was the complete area allocated and filled in. As an additional twist, on interrupt entry a "slightly less truncated pt_regs" trick is used, to make nested interrupt stacks easier to unwind. This proved to be a source of significant obfuscation and subtle bugs. For example, 'stub_fork' had to pop the return address, extend the struct, save registers, and push return address back. Ugly. 'ia32_ptregs_common' pops return address and "returns" via jmp insn, throwing a wrench into CPU return stack cache. This patch changes the code to always allocate a complete "struct pt_regs" on the kernel stack. The saving of registers is still done lazily. "Partial pt_regs" trick on interrupt stack is retained. Macros which manipulate "struct pt_regs" on stack are reworked: - ALLOC_PT_GPREGS_ON_STACK allocates the structure. - SAVE_C_REGS saves to it those registers which are clobbered by C code. - SAVE_EXTRA_REGS saves to it all other registers. - Corresponding RESTORE_* and REMOVE_PT_GPREGS_FROM_STACK macros reverse it. 'ia32_ptregs_common', 'stub_fork' and friends lost their ugly dance with the return pointer. LOAD_ARGS32 in ia32entry.S now uses symbolic stack offsets instead of magic numbers. 'error_entry' and 'save_paranoid' now use SAVE_C_REGS + SAVE_EXTRA_REGS instead of having it open-coded yet again. Patch was run-tested: 64-bit executables, 32-bit executables, strace works. Timing tests did not show measurable difference in 32-bit and 64-bit syscalls.
