>From 8c43c562694fd0436494dc9d3faabb3eea86f9d8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rich Felker Date: Sat, 31 Aug 2024 12:34:13 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 2/2] sysconf: fix _SC_MINSIGSTKSZ computation to match kernel interpretation the value placed in the aux vector AT_MINSIGSTKSZ by the kernel is purely the signal frame size, and does not include any execution space for the signal handler. this is contrary to the POSIX definition of MINSIGSTKSZ to be a value that can actually execute at least some minimal signal handler, and contrary to the historical definitions of MINSIGSTKSZ which had at least 1k of headroom. --- src/conf/sysconf.c | 9 +++++++-- 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/conf/sysconf.c b/src/conf/sysconf.c index 60d3e745..8dd5c725 100644 --- a/src/conf/sysconf.c +++ b/src/conf/sysconf.c @@ -220,8 +220,13 @@ long sysconf(int name) return (mem > LONG_MAX) ?
