Subject: [REVIEW][PATCH 10/20] signal/x86/traps: Use force_sig instead of open coding it.
Date: Tue, 18 Sep 2018 02:05:36 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180918000546.12552-10-ebiederm@xmission.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87y3bzk6yv.fsf@xmission.com>
The function "force_sig(sig, tsk)" is equivalent to "
force_sig_info(sig, SEND_SIG_PRIV, tsk)". Using the siginfo variants can
be error prone so use the simpler old fashioned force_sig variant,
and with luck the force_sig_info variant can go away.
