The following commit has been merged into the timers/core branch of tip: Commit-ID: 54f1dd642fd088ba969206f09e7afffad7d9db2c Gitweb: https://git.kernel.org/tip/54f1dd642fd088ba969206f09e7afffad7d9db2c Author: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Tue, 05 Nov 2024 09:14:39 +01:00 Committer: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> CommitterDate: Thu, 07 Nov 2024 02:14:44 +01:00 signal: Provide posixtimer_sigqueue_init() To cure the SIG_IGN handling for posix interval timers, the preallocated sigqueue needs to be embedded into struct k_itimer to prevent life time races of all sorts. Provide a new function to initialize the embedded sigqueue to prepare for that.
