The patch titled signals: simplify sig_ignored() pathes has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was signals-simplify-sig_ignored-pathes.patch This patch was dropped because an updated version will be merged The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: signals: simplify sig_ignored() pathes From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx> The code which checks for ignored signals is a bit overcomplicated because tracehook_consider_ignored_signal() wants the "handler" arg. Can't we kill it? It is not used even with utrace, and even if it will be used later it is OK to read ->sighand again in the slow path.
