Subject: fix code path where child function returns in arm __clone built as thumb
X-Git-Tag: v1.1.24~20
X-Git-Url: https://git.librecmc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=05870abeaac0588fb9115cfd11f96880a0af2108;p=oweals%2Fmusl.git

fix code path where child function returns in arm __clone built as thumb

mov lr,pc is not a valid way to save the return address in thumb mode
since it omits the thumb bit. use a chain of bl and bx to emulate blx.
this could be avoided by converting to a .S file with preprocessor
conditions to use blx if available, but the time cost here is
dominated by the syscall anyway.

while making this change, also remove the remnants of support for
pre-bx ISA levels. commit 9f290a49bf9ee247d540d3c83875288a7991699c
removed the hack from the parent code paths, but left the unnecessary
code in the child. keeping it would require rewriting two code paths
rather than one, and is useless for reasons described in that commit.
