Subject: [PATCH 05/11] signal/metag: Document a conflict with SI_USER with SIGFPE
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org

Setting si_code to 0 results in a userspace seeing an si_code of 0.
This is the same si_code as SI_USER.  Posix and common sense requires
that SI_USER not be a signal specific si_code.  As such this use of 0
for the si_code is a pretty horribly broken ABI.

Further use of si_code == 0 guaranteed that copy_siginfo_to_user saw a
value of __SI_KILL and now sees a value of SIL_KILL with the result
hat uid and pid fields are copied and which might copying the si_addr
field by accident but certainly not by design.  Making this a very
flakey implementation.

Utilizing FPE_FIXME siginfo_layout will now return SIL_FAULT and the
appropriate fields will reliably be copied.

Possible ABI fixes includee:
  - Send the signal without siginfo
  - Don't generate a signal
  - Possibly assign and use an appropriate si_code
  - Don't handle cases which can't happen
