[ Upstream commit 22839869f21ab3850fbbac9b425ccc4c0023926f ]
The sigaltstack(2) system call fails with -ENOMEM if the new alternative signal stack is found to be smaller than SIGMINSTKSZ. On architectures such as arm64, where the native value for SIGMINSTKSZ is larger than the compat value, this can result in an unexpected error being reported to a compat task. See, for example:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=904385
This patch fixes the problem by extending do_sigaltstack to take the minimum signal stack size as an additional parameter, allowing the native and compat system call entry code to pass in their respective values. COMPAT_SIGMINSTKSZ is just defined as SIGMINSTKSZ if it has not been defined by the architecture.
