Subject: [RFC patch 2/3] signals: implement sys_rt_tgsigqueueinfo
Date: Wed, 01 Oct 2008 10:01:39 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081001095412.217106351@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20081001095204.343984413@linutronix.de

[-- Attachment #1: signals-implement-rt-tgsigqueueinfo.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 3626 bytes --]

sys_kill has the per thread counterpart sys_tgkill. sigqueueinfo is
missing a thread directed counterpart. Such an interface is important
for migrating applications from other OSes which have the per thread
delivery implemented.
