Subject: [GIT PULL] brown paper bag fix for SIGPOLL si_codes
Date: Tue, 19 Sep 2017 13:30:33 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87o9q65ynq.fsf@xmission.com> (raw)


Linus,

Please pull the for-linus branch from the git tree:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace.git for-linus

   HEAD: 54640d238760a1a54dfebe039b49682522100186 fcntl: Don't set si_code to SI_SIGIO when sig == SIGPOLL

When sorting out the si_code ambiguity fcntl I accidentally overshot and
included SIGPOLL as well.  Ooops!  This is my trivial fix for that.

Vince Weaver caught this when it landed in your tree with his
perf_event_tests many of which started failing because the si_code changed.

Subject: [PATCH] fcntl: Don't set si_code to SI_SIGIO when sig == SIGPOLL

When fixing things to avoid ambiguous cases I had a thinko
and included SIGPOLL/SIGIO in with all of the other signals
that have signal specific si_codes.  Which is completely wrong.

Fix that.
