[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] linux-user/syscall.c: Enforce pselect6 sigset size restrictions

[Peter Maydell]

Enforce the same restriction on the size of the sigset passed to
pselect6 as the Linux kernel does. This is both correct and silences
a gcc 4.6 warning about a write-only variable.

This really is the last gcc 4.6 warning fix!

Odd but true, after all the trouble of passing the size as packed variable,
even the kernel bothers nothing but check that it matches with 
sizeof(sigset_t)...

I'll include this and your other two patches for the next round.

I assume they're leaving the door open for implementing that properly
at some later date.

Incidentally, if the qemu target's sigset_t and the host's sigset_t
are different sizes then not just this syscall but I suspect all
the others that use sigset_t will have trouble. Luckily only one
flavour of MIPS has a non-standard sigset_t size :-)
