Subject: [PATCH V4] futex: set FLAGS_HAS_TIMEOUT during demux for FUTEX_WAIT
Date: Thu, 14 Apr 2011 14:43:01 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ef361f98ac0e0771c14ec7facb5b41086eb4ba50.1302817381.git.dvhart@linux.intel.com> (raw)

The FLAGS_HAS_TIMEOUT flag was not getting set, causing the restart_block to
restart futex_wait() without a timeout after a signal.

Commit b41277dc7a18ee332d in 2.6.38 introduced the regression by accidentally
removing the the FLAGS_HAS_TIMEOUT assignment from futex_wait() during the setup
of the restart block. Restore the originaly behavior.

Fixes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32922

V2: Added references to commit message.
V3: Set flag during restart block instead of do_futex()
V4: Correct stupid order of assignment mistake pointed out by Eric
