I've finally tracked down why my CR signal-unwind test case still
fails on little-endian. The problem turned to be that the kernel
installs a signal trampoline in the vDSO, and provides a DWARF CFI
record for that trampoline. This CFI describes the save location
for CR:
rsave (70, 38*RSIZE + (RSIZE - CRSIZE))
which is correct for big-endian, but points to the wrong word on
little-endian. This is wrong no matter which ABI.
In addition, for the ELFv2 ABI, we should not only provide a CFI
record for register 70 (cr2), but for all CR fields separately.
Strictly speaking, I guess this would mean providing two separate
vDSO images, one for ELFv1 processes and one for ELFv2 processes (or
maybe playing some tricks with conditional DWARF expressions).
However, having CFI records for the other CR fields in ELFv1 is not
actually wrong, they just will be ignored. So it seems the simplest
fix would be just to always provide CFI for all the fields.

The current DWARF info for CR are incorrect, causing the gcc unwinder to
go to lunch if we take a segfault in the vdso. This fixes it.
Problem identified by Andrew Haley, and fix provided by Jakub Jelinek
(thanks !).
Unfortunately, a bug in gcc cause it to not quite work either, but that
is being fixed separately with something around the lines of:
linux-unwind.h:
fs->regs.reg[R_CR2].loc.offset = (long) ®s->ccr - new_cfa;
+ /* CR? regs are just 32-bit and PPC is big-endian. */
+ fs->regs.reg[R_CR2].loc.offset += sizeof (long) - 4;
(According to Jakub)

Mark unwind info for signal trampolines using the new S augmentation flag
introduced in: http://gcc.gnu.org/PR26208.
GCC 4.2 (or patched earlier GCC) will be able to special case unwinding
through frames right above signal trampolines. As the augmentations start
with z flag and S is at the very end of the augmentation string, older GCCs
will just skip the S flag as unknown (that's why an augmentation flag was
chosen over say a new CFA opcode).

This patch moves the vdso's to arch/powerpc, adds support for the 32
bits vdso to the 32 bits kernel, rename systemcfg (finally !), and adds
some new (still untested) routines to both vdso's: clock_gettime() with
support for CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC, clock_getres() (same
clocks) and get_tbfreq() for glibc to retreive the timebase frequency.
Tom,Steve: The implementation of get_tbfreq() I've done for 32 bits
returns a long long (r3, r4) not a long. This is such that if we ever
add support for >4Ghz timebases on ppc32, the userland interface won't
have to change.
I have tested gettimeofday() using some glibc patches in both ppc32 and
ppc64 kernels using 32 bits userland (I haven't had a chance to test a
64 bits userland yet, but the implementation didn't change and was
tested earlier). I haven't tested yet the new functions.
