[RFC PATCH v3 27/28] arm64: signal: Report signal frame size to userspace via auxv

2017-10-10 Thread Dave Martin
Stateful CPU architecture extensions may require the signal frame to grow to a size that exceeds the arch's MINSIGSTKSZ #define. However, changing this #define is an ABI break. To allow userspace the option of determining the signal frame size in a more forwards-compatible way, this patch adds a n
