Subject: [PATCH] UML - signal bug fix
Date: Thu, 11 Nov 2004 14:57:17 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200411111957.iABJvHPV004137@ccure.user-mode-linux.org> (raw)

This patch fixes a bug introduced in the last batch of signal fixes.  The
system call return value should only be reset if called diectly from a system
call, i.e. sigsuspend.  The fixes added earlier caused any interrupted non-zero
system call return to be reset, confusing fork and vfork, among others.
