This series addresses and ambiguity that is at least visible in OpenBSD, where zombie proceses would only be cleared after a new connection is received. The underlying problem is that when this code was originally introduced, SA_RESTART was not widely implemented, and the signal() call usually implemented SysV like semantics, at least until it started being reimplemented by calling sigaction() internally. Changes since v1 * Almost all references to siginterrupt has been removed and a better named variable used instead * Changes had been anstracted to minimize ifdefs and their introduction staged more naturally Carlo Marcelo Arenas Belón (3): compat/posix.h: track SA_RESTART fallback daemon: use sigaction() to install child_handler() daemon: explicitly allow EINTR during poll() Makefile | 6 +++++ compat/mingw-posix.h | 1 - compat/posix.h | 8 +++++++ config.mak.uname | 7 +++--- configure.ac | 17 +++++++++++++++ daemon.c | 52 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----- meson.build | 4 ++++ 7 files changed, 85 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) base-commit: cb3b40381e1d5ee32dde96521ad7cfd68eb308a6 Published-As: https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git/releases/tag/pr-git-2002%2Fcarenas%2Fsiginterrupt-v2 Fetch-It-Via: git fetch https://github.com/gitgitgadget/git pr-git-2002/carenas/siginterrupt-v2 Pull-Request: https://github.com/git/git/pull/2002 Range-diff vs v1: 1: 2b5a58e53ac ! 1: e82b7425bbc compat/posix.h: track SA_RESTART fallback @@ Metadata ## Commit message ## compat/posix.h: track SA_RESTART fallback - Systems without SA_RESTART where using custom CFLAGS instead of - the standard header file. + Systems without SA_RESTART are using custom CFLAGS or headers + instead of the standard header file. - Consolidate that, so it will be easier to use in a future commit. + Correct that, and invent a Makefile variable to track the + exceptions which will become handy in the next commits.
