This patch is by far the most complex in the series. It adds a new syscall
paccept. This syscall differs from accept in that it adds (at the userlevel)
two additional parameters:
- a signal mask
- a flags value
The flags parameter can be used to set flag like SOCK_CLOEXEC. This is
imlpemented here as well. Some people argued that this is a property
which should be inherited from the file desriptor for the server but
this is against POSIX. Additionally, we really want the signal mask
parameter as well (similar to pselect, ppoll, etc). So an interface
change in inevitable.
The flag value is the same as for socket and socketpair. I think
diverging here will only create confusion. Similar to the filesystem
interfaces where the use of the O_* constants differs, it is acceptable
here.
The signal mask is handled as for pselect etc. The mask is temporarily
installed for the thread and removed before the call returns. I modeled
the code after pselect. If there is a problem it's likely also in
pselect.
For architectures which use socketcall I maintained this interface
instead of adding a system call. The symmetry shouldn't be broken.
The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and
x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed.

Some architectures (including x86) do not implement TIF_RESTORE_SIGMASK.
Ah, you must have prepared the patches against something prehistoric like
2.6.25. Please prefer to prepare 2.6.x patches against the 2.6.x tree, not
the 2.6.x-1 tree?
Whatever you're trying to do here, we'll need to find a non-arch-specific
way of doing it.

It's now spelled:
set_restore_sigmask();
For the other syscalls that depend on this (e.g. sys_ppoll),
we just put the whole definition in #ifdef HAVE_SET_RESTORE_SIGMASK.
The few machines that don't have RESTORE_SIGMASK support of some flavor,
also have not assigned numbers to the syscalls that need it.
Thanks,
Roland

I notice that this macro also sets the sigpending bit, although
some paths that end up calling set_restore_sigmask() already
do that.

Am getting moderately bored of these patches :(
arm exploded thusly:
net/socket.c: In function `sys_paccept':
net/socket.c:1534: error: implicit declaration of function `set_restore_sigmask'
because afacit arm doesn't implement set_restore_sigmask() and nor does
it need to, because it doesn't set HAVE_SET_RESTORE_SIGMASK.
I will continue to fumble along in the rc2-mm1 direction. Fixes against that
kernel would suit, thanks.

pselect isn't define if HAVE_SET_RESTORE_SIGMASK isn't defined. That's
fine since pselect offers nothing over select except the signal
handling. For paccept we'll have to be a bit more sophisticated, I'm
afraid. Patch in a few minutes.
