This is why it is best to update the changelog in response to the review discussion - if person A was wondering about something then it is likely that person B will wonder about the same thing. Take a reviewer's questioning as an indication that the changelog was lacking. I'm not sure what to make of this patchset, really. Oleg sounds unhappy and that's always a bad sign. And signals are rather ugly things. Oleg, can you please expand on your concerns? The arguments against using connector aren't very compelling. Sure, connector is hard to use from shell scripts but so are signals? And is there much of a usecase for managing these things with shell scripts anyway? Has an eventfd implementation been considered? I'm sure we've added other kernel->userspace comminication schemes, but I can't immediately recall them all :(
