- signals-fold-sig_ignored-into-handle_stop_signal.patch removed from -mm tree

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

 



The patch titled
     signals: fold sig_ignored() into handle_stop_signal()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     signals-fold-sig_ignored-into-handle_stop_signal.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: signals: fold sig_ignored() into handle_stop_signal()
From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx>

Rename handle_stop_signal() to prepare_signal(), make it return a boolean, and
move the callsites of sig_ignored() into it.

No functional changes for now.  But it would be nice to factor out the "should
we drop this signal" checks as much as possible, before we try to fix the bugs
with the sub-namespace init's signals (actually the global /sbin/init has some
problems with signals too).
