Subject: fix thread structure/dtv-pointer corruption on powerpc
X-Git-Tag: v1.1.15~67
X-Git-Url: https://git.librecmc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=be999f7a54e81656ea0409030205177327a7450c;p=oweals%2Fmusl.git

fix thread structure/dtv-pointer corruption on powerpc

per the powerpc psabi, offset 4 of the stack at call time belongs to
the callee and is used for spilling lr (return address). in addition,
offset 0 on the stack must contain a pointer to the previous stack
frame, or a null pointer for the initial stack frame of a thread.
__clone failed to setup any stack frame on the new thread's stack,
thereby allowing the start function it called to clobber offset 4 of
the new thread's struct __pthread, which contains the dtv pointer.

add code to setup a proper stack frame and align the stack pointer to
a multiple of 16 (also an abi requirement) if it was not already
aligned.
