+
+/* A guide to using safe_syscall() to handle interactions between guest
+ * syscalls and guest signals:
+ *
+ * Guest syscalls come in two flavours:
+ *
+ * (1) Non-interruptible syscalls
+ *
+ * These are guest syscalls that never get interrupted by signals and
+ * so never return EINTR. They can be implemented straightforwardly in
+ * QEMU: just make sure that if the implementation code has to make any
+ * blocking calls that those calls are retried if they return EINTR.
+ * It's also OK to implement these with safe_syscall, though it will be
+ * a little less efficient if a signal is delivered at the 'wrong' moment.
+ *
+ * (2) Interruptible syscalls
+ *
+ * These are guest syscalls that can be interrupted by signals and
+ * for which we need to either return EINTR or arrange for the guest
+ * syscall to be restarted. This category includes both syscalls which
+ * always restart (and in the kernel return -ERESTARTNOINTR), ones
+ * which only restart if there is no handler (kernel returns -ERESTARTNOHAND
+ * or -ERESTART_RESTARTBLOCK), and the most common kind which restart
+ * if the handler was registered with SA_RESTART (kernel returns
+ * -ERESTARTSYS). System calls which are only interruptible in some
+ * situations (like 'open') also need to be handled this way.
+ *
+ * Here it is important that the host syscall is made
+ * via this safe_syscall() function, and *not* via the host libc.
+ * If the host libc is used then the implementation will appear to work
+ * most of the time, but there will be a race condition where a
+ * signal could arrive just before we make the host syscall inside libc,
+ * and then then guest syscall will not correctly be interrupted.
+ * Instead the implementation of the guest syscall can use the safe_syscall
+ * function but otherwise just return the result or errno in the usual
+ * way; the main loop code will take care of restarting the syscall
+ * if appropriate.
+ *
+ * (If the implementation needs to make multiple host syscalls this is
+ * OK; any which might really block must be via safe_syscall(); for those
+ * which are only technically blocking (ie which we know in practice won't
+ * stay in the host kernel indefinitely) it's OK to use libc if necessary.
+ * You must be able to cope with backing out correctly if some safe_syscall
+ * you make in the implementation returns either -TARGET_ERESTARTSYS or
+ * EINTR though.)
+ *
+ *
+ * How and why the safe_syscall implementation works:
+ *
+ * The basic setup is that we make the host syscall via a known
+ * section of host native assembly. If a signal occurs, our signal
+ * handler checks the interrupted host PC against the addresse of that
+ * known section. If the PC is before or at the address of the syscall
+ * instruction then we change the PC to point at a "return
+ * -TARGET_ERESTARTSYS" code path instead, and then exit the signal handler
+ * (causing the safe_syscall() call to immediately return that value).
+ * Then in the main.c loop if we see this magic return value we adjust
+ * the guest PC to wind it back to before the system call, and invoke
+ * the guest signal handler as usual.
+ *
+ * This winding-back will happen in two cases:
+ * (1) signal came in just before we took the host syscall (a race);
+ *   in this case we'll take the guest signal and have another go
+ *   at the syscall afterwards, and this is indistinguishable for the
+ *   guest from the timing having been different such that the guest
+ *   signal really did win the race
+ * (2) signal came in while the host syscall was blocking, and the
+ *   host kernel decided the syscall should be restarted;
+ *   in this case we want to restart the guest syscall also, and so
+ *   rewinding is the right thing. (Note that "restart" semantics mean
+ *   "first call the signal handler, then reattempt the syscall".)
+ * The other situation to consider is when a signal came in while the
+ * host syscall was blocking, and the host kernel decided that the syscall
+ * should not be restarted; in this case QEMU's host signal handler will
+ * be invoked with the PC pointing just after the syscall instruction,
+ * with registers indicating an EINTR return; the special code in the
+ * handler will not kick in, and we will return EINTR to the guest as
+ * we should.
+ *
+ * Notice that we can leave the host kernel to make the decision for
+ * us about whether to do a restart of the syscall or not; we do not
+ * need to check SA_RESTART flags in QEMU or distinguish the various
+ * kinds of restartability.
