Hi, This is v8 of syscall user dispatch. Last version got some acks but there was one small documentation fix I wanted to do, as requested by Florian. This also addresses the commit message fixup Peter requested. The only actual code change from v7 is solving a trivial merge conflict I myself created with the entry code fixup I made week and with something else in the TIP tree. I also shared this with glibc and there wasn't any complaints other than the matter about user-notif vs. siginfo, which was discussed in v7 and the understanding is that it is not necessary now and can be added later, if needed, on the same infrastructure without a new api. I'm not sure about TIP the rules, but is it too late to be queued for the next merge window? I'd love to have this in 5.11 if possible, since it has been flying for quite a while. This is based on tip/master.
