[PATCH] Handle TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK for FRV
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 FRV. (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) Make 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. This patch depends on the FRV signalling patches as well as the sys_rt_sigsuspend patch.
