    [S390] allow all addressing modes · d4e81b35
    Martin Schwidefsky authored
    The user space program can change its addressing mode between the
    24-bit, 31-bit and the 64-bit mode if the kernel is 64 bit. Currently
    the kernel always forces the standard amode on signal delivery and
    signal return and on ptrace: 64-bit for a 64-bit process, 31-bit for
    a compat process and 31-bit kernels. Change the signal and ptrace code
    to allow the full range of addressing modes. Signal handlers are
    run in the standard addressing mode for the process.
    
    One caveat is that even an 31-bit compat process can switch to the
    64-bit mode. The next signal will switch back into the 31-bit mode
    and there is no room in the 31-bit compat signal frame to store the
    information that the program came from the 64-bit mode.
