      [SIGNAL]: Allow more platforms to use generic get_signal_to_deliver. · b6f7756d
      David S. Miller authored
      The few platforms that cannot use the generic
      get_signal_to_deliver implementation cannot do
      so because they do special things for ptraced
      children.  This can be easily avoided and thus
      all of the signal handling code duplication can
      be eliminated.
      
      This is the first part, which adds a platform hook
      right before the parent of the ptraced child is woken.
      Data can be passed in via a cookie argument.
      
      The next part will be dealing with platforms
      that need to muck with breakpoints in the child
      in this same code block.

      [PATCH] consolidate do_signal · e9946e06
      Stephen Rothwell authored
      11 out of our 17 architectures have basically the same code
      in arch/../kernel/signal.c:do_signal.  This patch creates a
      common function for that bit of code and uses it in the places
      it can be.
      
      The 2.5.15 version of this patch builds and runs on i386 and PPC and has
      been briefly looked at by the CRIS, PARISC, PPC64 and x86_64 maintainers.
      
      As a bonus, this fixes the "ignore SIGURG" bug for 9 more architectures
      (i386 and PPC already were fixed).

      [PATCH] consolidate arch specific copy_siginfo_to_user · 849badb7
      Stephen Rothwell authored
      This patch moves a version of copy_siginfo_to_user that is common to
      ten of our architectures into the gerneic code and allows the other
      architectures to override it.  I suspect more of the remaining
      architectures will be able to use it as well once it is fixed (patch
      to follow).

      [PATCH] Third version of signal changes for thread groups · 676952b9
      Dave McCracken authored
      During the course of developing our pthread library (the NGPT pthread
      library) it became clear we needed some kernel support for handling
      signals.  This patch helps the library by redirecting all signals sent
      to tasks in a thread group to the thread group leader.  It also defines
      the tkill() system call so the library can signal a specific task if
      necessary. 
      
      Given that as far as I know NGPT is the only user of thread groups, and
      that this change would benefit any other user of thread groups, I'm
      submitting this for inclusion in the 2.5 kernel.
      
      Note that this patch also adds support for sys_gettid() for the
      architectures that don't have it.  While this could have been split into a
      spearate patch, it would create conflicts since this patch also adds
      sys_tkill(), so I felt it was cleaner to leave them together.
