    ALSA: pcm: Abort properly at pending signal in OSS read/write loops · 29159a4e
    Takashi Iwai authored
    The loops for read and write in PCM OSS emulation have no proper check
    of pending signals, and they keep processing even after user tries to
    break.  This results in a very long delay, often seen as RCU stall
    when a huge unprocessed bytes remain queued.  The bug could be easily
    triggered by syzkaller.
    
    As a simple workaround, this patch adds the proper check of pending
    signals and aborts the loop appropriately.
