      Changes for Linux running on Alpha. · 25b808fb

      From: Julian Dolby <dolby@csag-226-8.UCSD.EDU>
      
        Enclosed below are diffs against the cvs repository as of Feb 12;
      aside from minor changes like using different include files
      (e.g. validate.h instead of x86-validate.h in Linux-os.c) and adding
      alpha-linux specifics unix-glibc2.lisp, there are two code changes.
      
       The first is to signal handling. I had to put the POSIX-SIGS
      ifdefs into places used by alpha but not by x86, and I ifdef'ed out
      most of the linux #define kludges for signals for alpha linux, since
      alpha linux uses OSF/1 signals rather than linux ones.
      
       The second is that the trick of or'ing 2 into the reg_ALLOC address
      to cause faults does not work on alpha linux since the kernel traps
      and handles the unaligned access; I did not find a way to change that
      kernel behavior, so I changed the code to or (1<<63) into the address
      to cause a seg fault, and then check, in the seg fault handler, to see
      if the high-order address bits are set.
      
       One change I made is to the memory layout (lisp/alpha-validate.h and
      compiler/alpha/parms.lisp); that change is not needed to make lisp run
      on alpha linux, but is there because I wanted more heap space.

      Revise the address map to better utilise the address space, allowing · 0d71a1cd

      larger heaps and stacks:
      
      * There is now the potential for up to 2.75GB dynamic space on
      FreeBSD, and 1.75GB on linux.  Since GENCGC statically allocates page
      tables the default size is set at just 1GB.
      
      * The Read-only and Static spaces have been increased to 256MB
      allowing larger heaps to be purified. The Read-only and Static spaces
      are in the same locations for both the FreeBSD and Linux ports to
      avoid unnecessary binary incompatibility.
      
      * The Control stack and Binking stack now have room for upto 128MB,
      supporting deeply nested algorithms, and potentially giving room for
      subdivision for thread stacks.
      
      * There is a reserve for the FreeBSD static libraries in the event
      that the FreeBSD lisp binary is dynamically linked, and the foreign
      segment size for FreeBSD is now 32MB, up from just 4MB.
      
      * There is now significantly more room for C allocated memory, roughly
      128M on Linux and 224M on FreeBSD.

      Subject: Fix for Alpha "dead in fake_foreign_function_call" bug
      
      This bug occurs because the code in arch_get_bad_addr in alpha-arch.c
      looks to see whether the faulting instruction is a store instruction,
      but doesn't check for floating-point stores.
