Like Keith, I'd like to keep the amount of decoding in the kernel as minimal as possible. We already have si_isr in the siginfo structure, so apps/libraries can decode things themselves. Having said that, we ought to decode things sufficiently so that si_code can be set to the correct value (where this makes sense). Hopefully, that won't add tons of code and it would help application portability. --david
