Subject: [PATCH 09/10] signal: Use SEND_SIG_PRIV not SEND_SIG_FORCED with SIGKILL and SIGSTOP
Date: Mon,  3 Sep 2018 22:44:29 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180903204430.25473-9-ebiederm@xmission.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87musyl3fa.fsf@xmission.com>

Now that siginfo is never allocated for SIGKILL and SIGSTOP there is
no difference between SEND_SIG_PRIV and SEND_SIG_FORCED for SIGKILL
and SIGSTOP.  This makes SEND_SIG_FORCED unnecessary and redundant in
the presence of SIGKILL and SIGSTOP.  Therefore change users of
SEND_SIG_FORCED that are sending SIGKILL or SIGSTOP to use
SEND_SIG_PRIV instead.

This removes the last users of SEND_SIG_FORCED.
