Hi Dave,
The sa_restorer field is obsolete and not in the hppa struct
sigaction, but we still define SA_RESTORER. What should be done?
Basically to not break userspace we can't (and shouldn't) add the sa_restorer struct member.
So, the only option would be to drop the SA_RESTORER #define, right?
But I have no idea how and if this will break some builds, since the major arches seem to define SA_RESTORER...
I asked the question when I saw the crashme kernel test package didn't
build due to the missing field.
In the generic sigaction struct, the field is conditional on the
SA_RESTORER define. I imagine that
the major arches also have sa_restorer struct member.
I agree it seems best to remove the define.
