GCC assumes that stack is aligned to 16-byte on call sites [1].
Since GCC 8, GCC began using 16-byte aligned SSE instructions to
implement assignments to structs on stack. When
CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE is enabled, this affects
os-Linux/sigio.c, write_sigio_thread:

  struct pollfds *fds, tmp;
  tmp = current_poll;

Note that struct pollfds is exactly 16 bytes in size.
GCC 8+ generates assembly similar to:

  movdqa (%rdi),%xmm0
  movaps %xmm0,-0x50(%rbp)

This is an issue, because movaps will #GP if -0x50(%rbp) is not
aligned to 16 bytes [2], and how rbp gets assigned to is via glibc
clone thread_start, then function prologue, going though execution
trace similar to (showing only relevant instructions):

  sub    $0x10,%rsi
  mov    %rcx,0x8(%rsi)
  mov    %rdi,(%rsi)
  syscall
  pop    %rax
  pop    %rdi
  callq  *%rax
  push   %rbp
  mov    %rsp,%rbp

The stack pointer always points to the topmost element on stack,
rather then the space right above the topmost. On push, the
pointer decrements first before writing to the memory pointed to
by it. Therefore, there is no need to have the stack pointer
pointer always point to valid memory unless the stack is poped;
so the `- sizeof(void *)` in the code is unnecessary.

On the other hand, glibc reserves the 16 bytes it needs on stack
and pops itself, so by the call instruction the stack pointer
is exactly the caller-supplied sp. It then push the 16 bytes of
the return address and the saved stack pointer, so the base
pointer will be 16-byte aligned if and only if the caller
supplied sp is 16-byte aligned. Therefore, the caller must supply
a 16-byte aligned pointer, which `stack + UM_KERN_PAGE_SIZE`
already satisfies.

On a side note, musl is unaffected by this issue because it forces
16 byte alignment via `and $-16,%rsi` in its clone wrapper.
Similarly, glibc i386 is also unaffected because it has
`andl $0xfffffff0, %ecx`.

To reproduce this bug, enable CONFIG_UML_RTC and
CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE. uml_rtc will call
add_sigio_fd which will then cause write_sigio_thread to either go
into segfault loop or panic with "Segfault with no mm".

Similarly, signal stacks will be aligned by the host kernel upon
signal delivery. `- sizeof(void *)` to sigaltstack is
unconventional and extraneous.

On a related note, initialization of longjmp buffers do require
`- sizeof(void *)`. This is to account for the return address
that would have been pushed to the stack at the call site.

The reason for uml to respect 16-byte alignment, rather than
telling GCC to assume 8-byte alignment like the host kernel since
commit d9b0cde9 ("x86-64, gcc: Use
-mpreferred-stack-boundary=3 if supported"), is because uml links
against libc. There is no reason to assume libc is also compiled
with that flag and assumes 8-byte alignment rather than 16-byte.
