Subject: [PATCH v6 2/2] selftests: Add a test mangling with uc_sigmask

The test is motivated by the following observation:

Raise a signal, jump to signal handler. The ucontext_t structure dumped
by kernel to userspace has a uc_sigmask field having the mask of blocked
signals. If you run a fresh minimalistic program doing this, this field
is empty, even if you block some signals while registering the handler
with sigaction().

Here is what the man-pages have to say:

sigaction(2): "sa_mask specifies a mask of signals which should be blocked
(i.e., added to the signal mask of the thread in which the signal handler
is invoked) during execution of the signal handler. In addition, the
signal which triggered the handler will be blocked, unless the SA_NODEFER
flag is used."

signal(7): Under "Execution of signal handlers", (1.3) implies:

"The thread's current signal mask is accessible via the ucontext_t
object that is pointed to by the third argument of the signal handler."

But, (1.4) states:

"Any signals specified in act->sa_mask when registering the handler with
sigprocmask(2) are added to the thread's signal mask.  The signal being
delivered is also added to the signal mask, unless SA_NODEFER was
specified when registering the handler.  These signals are thus blocked
while the handler executes."

There clearly is no distinction being made in the man pages between
"Thread's signal mask" and ucontext_t; this logically should imply
that a signal blocked by populating struct sigaction should be visible
in ucontext_t.

Here is what the kernel code does (for Aarch64):

do_signal() -> handle_signal() -> sigmask_to_save(), which returns
&current->blocked, is passed to setup_rt_frame() -> setup_sigframe() ->
__copy_to_user(). Hence, &current->blocked is copied to ucontext_t
exposed to userspace. Returning back to handle_signal(),
signal_setup_done() -> signal_delivered() -> sigorsets() and
set_current_blocked() are responsible for using information from
struct ksignal ksig, which was populated through the sigaction()
system call in kernel/signal.c:
copy_from_user(&new_sa.sa, act, sizeof(new_sa.sa)),
to update &current->blocked; hence, the set of blocked signals for the
current thread is updated AFTER the kernel dumps ucontext_t to
userspace.

Assuming that the above is indeed the intended behaviour, because it
semantically makes sense, since the signals blocked using sigaction()
remain blocked only till the execution of the handler, and not in the
context present before jumping to the handler (but nothing can be
confirmed from the man-pages), this patch introduces a test for
mangling with uc_sigmask.

The test asserts the relation between blocked signal, delivered signal,
and ucontext. The ucontext is mangled with, by adding a signal mask to
it; on return from the handler, the thread must block the corresponding
signal.

In the test description, I have also described signal delivery and blockage,
for ease of understanding what the test does.

+ *
+ * Test describing a clear distinction between signal states - delivered and
+ * blocked, and their relation with ucontext.
+ *
+ * A process can request blocking of a signal by masking it into its set of
+ * blocked signals; such a signal, when sent to the process by the kernel,
+ * will get blocked by the process and it may later unblock it and take an
+ * action. At that point, the signal will be delivered.
+ *
+ * We test the following functionalities of the kernel:
+ *
+ * ucontext_t describes the interrupted context of the thread; this implies
+ * that, in case of registering a handler and catching the corresponding
+ * signal, that state is before what was jumping into the handler.
+ *
+ * The thread's mask of blocked signals can be permanently changed, i.e, not
+ * just during the execution of the handler, by mangling with uc_sigmask
+ * from inside the handler.
+ *
+ * Assume that we block the set of signals, S1, by sigaction(), and say, the
+ * signal for which the handler was installed, is S2. When S2 is sent to the
+ * program, it will be considered "delivered", since we will act on the
+ * signal and jump to the handler. Any instances of S1 or S2 raised, while the
+ * program is executing inside the handler, will be blocked; they will be
+ * delivered immediately upon termination of the handler.
+ *
+ * For standard signals (also see real-time signals in the man page), multiple
+ * blocked instances of the same signal are not queued; such a signal will
+ * be delivered just once.
