* fix (hopefully) all hard-coded 8's for kernel sigset_t sizeRich Felker2012-08-091-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | some minor changes to how hard-coded sets for thread-related purposes are handled were also needed, since the old object sizes were not necessarily sufficient. things have gotten a bit ugly in this area, and i think a cleanup is in order at some point, but for now the goal is just to get the code working on all supported archs including mips, which was badly broken by linux rejecting syscalls with the wrong sigset_t size.
* overhaul implementation-internal signal protectionsRich Felker2011-05-071-5/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | the new approach relies on the fact that the only ways to create sigset_t objects without invoking UB are to use the sig*set() functions, or from the masks returned by sigprocmask, sigaction, etc. or in the ucontext_t argument to a signal handler. thus, as long as sigfillset and sigaddset avoid adding the "protected" signals, there is no way the application will ever obtain a sigset_t including these bits, and thus no need to add the overhead of checking/clearing them when sigprocmask or sigaction is called. note that the old code actually *failed* to remove the bits from sa_mask when sigaction was called. the new implementations are also significantly smaller, simpler, and faster due to ignoring the useless "GNU HURD signals" 65-1024, which are not used and, if there's any sanity in the world, never will be used.

* fix race condition in raise - just mask signalsRich Felker2011-03-091-9/+9
| | | | | | | | a signal handler could fork after the pid/tid were read, causing the wrong process to be signalled. i'm not sure if this is supposed to have UB or not, but raise is async-signal-safe, so it probably is allowed. the current solution is slightly expensive so this implementation is likely to be changed in the future.
