Add a test case to validate correct behaviour vs. SIG_IGN. The posix specification states: "Setting a signal action to SIG_IGN for a signal that is pending shall cause the pending signal to be discarded, whether or not it is blocked." The kernel implements this in the signal handling code, but due to the way how posix timers are handling SIG_IGN for periodic timers, the behaviour after installing a real handler again is inconsistent and suprising. The following sequence is expected to deliver a signal: install_handler(SIG); block_signal(SIG); timer_create(...); <- Should send SIG timer_settime(value=100ms, interval=100ms); sleep(1); <- Timer expires and queues signal, timer is not rearmed as that should happen in the signal delivery path ignore_signal(SIG); <- Discards queued signal install_handler(SIG); <- Restore handler, should rearm but does not sleep(1); unblock_signal(SIG); <- Should deliver one signal with overrun count set in siginfo This fails because nothing rearms the timer when the signal handler is restored. Add a test for this case which fails until the signal and posix timer code is fixed. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <frederic@kernel.org>
