things to do for arch maintainers


1. on the setjmp code, make sure that for the code ending up inside ld.so we don't call __sigjmp_save (see the x86, x86-64, ppc code)

2. add pointer_guard to tcbhead_t in <tls.h>

3. define THREAD_SET_POINTER_GUARD and THREAD_COPY_POINTER_GUARD in <tls.h>

4. in <sysdep.h>, define PTR_MANGLE and PTR_DEMANGLE. The ld.so code must use the global variable __pointer_chk_guard_local. The libc code must use the tcbhead_t value. C and asm versions are needed. See the x86-64 version


All needs to be done for archs other than x86 and x86-64 (although 1 is done for ppc).
