a3dca4517e Align the FPU state in the ucontext and sigcontext to 16 bytes
to accomodate the new SSE/XMM floating point save/restore
instructions.

This commit is mostly from bde and includes some style nits.

2be05b70c9 Add getcontext, setcontext, and swapcontext as system calls.
Previously these were libc functions but were requested to
be made into system calls for atomicity and to coalesce what
might be two entrances into the kernel (signal mask setting
and floating point trap) into one.

A few style nits and comments from bde are also included.

23eeeff7be Split 4.x and 5.x signal handling so that we can keep 4.x signal
handling clean and functional as 5.x evolves.  This allows some of the
nasty bandaids in the 5.x codepaths to be unwound.

Encapsulate 4.x signal handling under COMPAT_FREEBSD4 (there is an
anti-foot-shooting measure in place, 5.x folks need this for a while) and
finish encapsulating the older stuff under COMPAT_43.  Since the ancient
stuff is required on alpha (longjmp(3) passes a 'struct osigcontext *'
to the current sigreturn(2), instead of the 'ucontext_t *' that sigreturn
is supposed to take), add a compile time check to prevent foot shooting
there too.  Add uniform COMPAT_43 stubs for ia64/sparc64/powerpc.

Tested on: i386, alpha, ia64.  Compiled on sparc64 (a few days ago).

80047e95cf Add another temporary hack to allow running older i386 binaries.
This will be removed when new versions of syscalls sigreturn()
and sigaction() are added (mini is working on this but is in
the middle of a move).

This should fix the problem of cvsupd dying.

9ba1547929 Add kernel support needed for the KSE-aware libpthread:
- Maintain fpu state across signals.
	- Save and restore FPU state properly in ucontext_t's.

2e615b482d Use a spare slot in the machine context for a flags word to indicate
whether the machine context is valid and whether the FPU state is
valid (saved).

Mark the machine context valid before copying it out when sending a
signal.

645682fd40 Add a per-signal flag to mark handlers registered with osigaction, so we
can provide the correct context to each signal handler.

Fix broken sigsuspend(): don't use p_oldsigmask as a flag, use SAS_OLDMASK
as we did before the linuxthreads support merge (submitted by bde).

Move ps_sigstk from to p_sigacts to the main proc structure since signal
stack should not be shared among threads.

Move SAS_OLDMASK and SAS_ALTSTACK flags from sigacts::ps_flags to proc::p_flag.
Move PS_NOCLDSTOP and PS_NOCLDWAIT flags from proc::p_flag to procsig::ps_flag.

210430fd8d Simplification of the signal trampoline and other cleanups.
o  Remove unused defines from genassym.c that were needed
   by the trampoline.
o  Add load_gs_param function to support.s that catches
   a fault when %gs is loaded with an invalid descriptor.
   The function returns EFAULT in that case.
o  Remove struct trapframe from mcontext_t and replace it
   with the list of registers.
o  Modify sendsig and sigreturn accordingly.

This commit contains a patch by bde.

c5c6b7b38e Re-introduction of sigcontext.
struct sigcontext and ucontext_t/mcontext_t are defined in such
a way that both (ie struct sigcontext and ucontext_t) can be
passed on to sigreturn. The signal handler is still given a
ucontext_t for maximum flexibility.

For backward compatibility sigreturn restores the state for the
alternate signal stack from sigcontext.sc_onstack and not from
ucontext_t.uc_stack. A good way to determine which value the
application has set and thus which value to use, is still open
for discussion.

NOTE: This change should only affect those binaries that use
      sigcontext and/or ucontext_t. In the source tree itself
      this is only doscmd. Recompilation is required for those
      applications.

This commit also fixes a lot of style bugs without hopefully
adding new ones.

NOTE: struct sigaltstack.ss_size now has type size_t again. For
      some reason I changed that into unsigned int.

91078fca0c sigset_t change (part 3 of 5)
-----------------------------

By introducing a new sigframe so that the signal handler operates
on the new siginfo_t and on ucontext_t instead of sigcontext, we
now need two version of sendsig and sigreturn.

A flag in struct proc determines whether the process expects an
old sigframe or a new sigframe. The signal trampoline handles
which sigreturn to call. It does this by testing for a magic
cookie in the frame.

The alpha uses osigreturn to implement longjmp. This means that
osigreturn is not only used for compatibility with existing
binaries. To handle the new sigset_t, setjmp saves it in
sc_reserved (see NOTE).

the struct sigframe has been moved from frame.h to sigframe.h
to handle the complex header dependencies that was caused by
the new sigframe.

NOTE: For the i386, the size of jmp_buf has been increased to hold
      the new sigset_t. On the alpha this has been prevented by
      using sc_reserved in sigcontext.
