[Devel] [PATCH RFC] s390: let tasks know to restart syscalls after sys_restart()

(This is a patch against the checkpoint/restart kernel tree at
http://git.ncl.cs.columbia.edu/?p=linux-cr.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/ckpt-v19-rc2.9)
On x86, do_signal() leaves -516 in eax while it freezes, which
sys_restart() can use to detect that it should restart the
syscall which was interrupted by a signal (or the freezer).
On s390, gprs[2] gets tweaked to -EINTR (-4) instead, leaving
us no reliable way to tell whether should be restarted. If the
task is checkpointed here and then restarted, then the last part
of do_signal() won't be done, and the interrupted syscall won't
be restarted.
This patch defines TIF_RESTARTBLOCK as a thread flag showing that
the thread expects to be frozen while kicked out of a restartable
syscall by a signal.
The TIF_RESTARTBLOCK flag is only set for the duration of the
get get_signal_to_deliver() which is where the task may get
frozen. We also set it in sys_restart() if the checkpointed task
had had TIF_RESTARTBLOCK set. It will get cleared if upon exiting
sys_restart() we jump to sysc_sigpending. If instead we jump back
to do_signal(), then TIF_RESTARTBLOCK will stay set again until
after get_signal_to_deliver() so that if it immediately freezes and
is re-checkpointed, the resulting second checkpoint image again
will have TIF_RESTARTBLOCK set.
To test this, add a dummy handler for SIGUSR1 to cr_tests/sleep/sleeptest.c,
open two terminals, and do:
Terminal 1: Terminal :
mount -t cgroup -o freezer freezer /cgroup
mkdir /cgroup/1 /cgroup/2
echo $$ > /cgroup/1/tasks
./sleeptest
echo FROZEN > /cgroup/1/freezer.state
checkpoint `pidof sleeptest` > /tmp/out
thaw
restart -F /cgroup/2 < /tmp/out
kill -USR1 `pidof sleeptest`;
echo THAWED > /cgroup/2/freezer.state ;
sleep 0.3;
echo FROZEN > /cgroup/2/freezer.state;
checkpoint `pidof sleeptest` > /tmp/out2;
echo THAWED > /cgroup/2/freezer.state
restart < /tmp/out2
Without this patch, the first restart will immediately exit. Without
re-setting TIF_RESTARTBLOCK in sys_restart(), the second restart will
immediately exit. With this full patch, it will restart the sleep
correctly.
