From ca9eb49aa9562eaadf3cea071ec7018ad6800425 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Hogan Date: Mon, 8 Feb 2016 18:43:50 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] SIGNAL: Move generic copy_siginfo() to signal.h The generic copy_siginfo() is currently defined in asm-generic/siginfo.h, after including uapi/asm-generic/siginfo.h which defines the generic struct siginfo. However this makes it awkward for an architecture to use it if it has to define its own struct siginfo (e.g. MIPS and potentially IA64), since it means that asm-generic/siginfo.h can only be included after defining the arch-specific siginfo, which may be problematic if the arch-specific definition needs definitions from uapi/asm-generic/siginfo.h. It is possible to work around this by first including uapi/asm-generic/siginfo.h to get the constants before defining the arch-specific siginfo, and include asm-generic/siginfo.h after. However uapi headers can't be included by other uapi headers, so that first include has to be in an ifdef __kernel__, with the non __kernel__ case including the non-UAPI header instead. Instead of that mess, move the generic copy_siginfo() definition into linux/signal.h, which allows an arch-specific uapi/asm/siginfo.h to include asm-generic/siginfo.h and define the arch-specific siginfo, and for the generic copy_siginfo() to see that arch-specific definition.
