It still gives us ksiginfo_t much smaller than siginfo_t, avoids all the mess with timers and AFAICS results in less intrusive patch.

I'll try to put together something along those lines and see how well does that work... _______________________________________________ xfs mailing list xfs@xxxxxxxxxxx http://oss.sgi.com/mailman/listinfo/xfs
