[PATCH 04/10] signal: Replace memset(info,...) with clear_siginfo for clarity

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The function clear_siginfo is just a nice wrapper around memset so
this results in no functional change.  This change makes mistakes
a little more difficult and it makes it clearer what is going on.
