[REVIEW][PATCH 00/17] siginfo bugfixes and cleanups

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

 



Mostly this dealing with aliases of SI_USER, that make it impossible for
userspace to tell what kind of siginfo it has received.

Also in this series is the change to ensure we have siginfo initialized
so I can rip out the switch in copy_siginfo_to_user for better
performance, and to ensure better backwards compatibility as siginfo as
generated in the callers is passed to userspace.

There are also fixes for a few other siginfo bugs I have found.

There are cleanups of ifdefs on SEGV_BNDERR and BUS_MCERR_AX that are no
longer necessary.

I plan to merge these bug fixes through my siginfo tree, but if you
object to them or would prefer to have them go through your arch tree
please let me know.

The changes are avaiable as a totality at:
