Subject: [PATCH 1/3] signals: tracehook_notify_jctl change
Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2009 18:41:00 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090321014100.5C4A9FC3AB@magilla.sf.frob.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: Roland McGrath's message of Friday, 20 March 2009 18:39:46 -0700 <20090321013946.890F4FC3AB@magilla.sf.frob.com>
This changes tracehook_notify_jctl() so it's called with the siglock held,
and changes its argument and return value definition. These clean-ups make
it a better fit for what new tracing hooks need to check.
Tracing needs the siglock here, held from the time TASK_STOPPED was set,
to avoid potential SIGCONT races if it wants to allow any blocking in its
tracing hooks.
This also folds the finish_stop() function into its caller do_signal_stop().
The function is short, called only once and only unconditionally. It aids
readability to fold it in.
