[PATCH 4/8] powerpc/signal64: Replace setup_sigcontext() w/ unsafe_setup_sigcontext()

Fri Oct 16 02:01:55 AEDT 2020


Previously setup_sigcontext() performed a costly KUAP switch on every
uaccess operation. These repeated uaccess switches cause a significant
drop in signal handling performance.

Rewrite setup_sigcontext() to assume that a userspace write access window
is open. Replace all uaccess functions with their 'unsafe' versions
which avoid the repeated uaccess switches.
