alpha: unbreak osf_setsysinfo(SSI_NVPAIRS, [SSIN_UACPROC, UAC_SIGBUS])
The bug was accidentally found by the following program:
#include <asm/sysinfo.h>
#include <asm/unistd.h>
#include <sys/syscall.h>
static int setsysinfo(unsigned long op, void *buffer, unsigned long size,
int *start, void *arg, unsigned long flag) {
return syscall(__NR_osf_setsysinfo, op, buffer, size, start, arg, flag);
}
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
short x[10];
unsigned int buf[2] = { SSIN_UACPROC, UAC_SIGBUS, };
setsysinfo(SSI_NVPAIRS, buf, 1, 0, 0, 0);
int *y = (int*) (x+1);
*y = 0;
return 0;
}
The program shoud fail on SIGBUS, but didn't.
The patch is a second part of userspace flag fix (commit 745dd2405e28
"Alpha: Rearrange thread info flags fixing two regressions").
Deleted outdated out-of-sync 'UAC_SHIFT' (the cause of bug) in favour of
'ALPHA_UAC_SHIFT'.
