From 44c64e6b15ceab6a4927f54e1081a74ba096b95a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Zankel Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2008 11:44:17 -0800 Subject: [XTENSA] Add support for the sa_restorer function Supporting the sa_restorer function allows for better security since the sigreturn system call doesn't need to be placed on the stack, so the stack doesn't need to be executable. This requires support from the c-library as it has to provide the restorer function.
