You want fatal_signal_pending() here, instead of inventing your own broken
version.
I rely on current->flags & PF_SIGNALED because this being set from
within get_signal,
meaning I am within signal processing in which case I want to avoid any
signal based wait for that task,
From what i see in the code, task_struct.pending.signal is being set
for other threads in same
group (zap_other_threads) or for other scenarios, those task are still
able to receive signals
so calling wait_event_killable there will not have problem.
entity->fini_status = -ERESTARTSYS;
else
entity->fini_status = wait_event_killable(sched->job_scheduled,
But really this smells like a bug in wait_event_killable, since
wait_event_interruptible does not suffer from the same bug. It will return
immediately when there's a signal pending.
Even when wait_event_interruptible is called as following -
...->do_signal->get_signal->....->wait_event_interruptible ?
I haven't tried it but wait_event_interruptible is very much alike to
wait_event_killable so I would assume it will also
not be interrupted if called like that. (Will give it a try just out of
curiosity anyway)

I think this should be fixed in core code, not papered over in some
subsystem.
