From e00d349e7781a92cf35b242259c9e5341a9661bb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Russell King Date: Wed, 22 Jun 2005 20:26:05 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] ARM: Move signal return code into vector page Move the signal return code into the vector page instead of placing it on the user mode stack, which will allow us to avoid flushing the instruction cache on signals, as well as eventually allowing non-exec stack.
