[PATCH] Handle TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK for i386
Handle TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK as added by David Woodhouse's patch entitled:
[PATCH] 2/3 Add TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK support for arch/powerpc
[PATCH] 3/3 Generic sys_rt_sigsuspend
It does the following:
(1) Declares TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK for i386.
(2) Invokes it over to do_signal() when TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK is set.
(3) Makes do_signal() support TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK, using the signal mask saved
in current->saved_sigmask.
(4) Discards sys_rt_sigsuspend() from the arch, using the generic one instead.
(5) Makes sys_sigsuspend() save the signal mask and set TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK
rather than attempting to fudge the return registers.
(6) Makes sys_sigsuspend() return -ERESTARTNOHAND rather than looping
intrinsically.
(7) Makes setup_frame(), setup_rt_frame() and handle_signal() return 0 or
-EFAULT rather than true/false to be consistent with the rest of the
kernel.
Due to the fact do_signal() is then only called from one place:
(8) Makes do_signal() no longer have a return value is it was just being
ignored; force_sig() takes care of this.
(9) Discards the old sigmask argument to do_signal() as it's no longer
necessary.
(10) Makes do_signal() static.
(11) Marks the second argument to do_notify_resume() as unused. The unused
argument should remain in the middle as the arguments are passed in as
registers, and the ordering is specific in entry.S
Given the way do_signal() is now no longer called from sys_{,rt_}sigsuspend(),
they no longer need access to the exception frame, and so can just take
arguments normally.
This patch depends on sys_rt_sigsuspend patch.
