[patch v4 21/27] signal: Provide ignored_posix_timers list
Posted by Thomas Gleixner 2 months ago
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

To prepare for handling posix timer signals on sigaction(SIG_IGN) properly,
add a list to task::signal.

This list will be used to queue posix timers so their signal can be
requeued when SIG_IGN is lifted later.
