cregit-Linux how code gets into the kernel

Release 4.10 tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/tm/tm-signal-stack.c

/*
 * Copyright 2015, Michael Neuling, IBM Corp.
 * Licensed under GPLv2.
 *
 * Test the kernel's signal delievery code to ensure that we don't
 * trelaim twice in the kernel signal delivery code.  This can happen
 * if we trigger a signal when in a transaction and the stack pointer
 * is bogus.
 *
 * This test case registers a SEGV handler, sets the stack pointer
 * (r1) to NULL, starts a transaction and then generates a SEGV.  The
 * SEGV should be handled but we exit here as the stack pointer is
 * invalid and hance we can't sigreturn.  We only need to check that
 * this flow doesn't crash the kernel.
