[PATCH 3.10 026/180] signal: remove warning about using SI_TKILL in rt_[tg]sigqueueinfo
From: Willy Tarreau
Date: Sun Aug 21 2016 - 11:46:18 EST
From: Vladimir Davydov <vdavydov@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 69828dce7af2cb6d08ef5a03de687d422fb7ec1f upstream.
Sending SI_TKILL from rt_[tg]sigqueueinfo was deprecated, so now we issue
a warning on the first attempt of doing it. We use WARN_ON_ONCE, which is
not informative and, what is worse, taints the kernel, making the trinity
syscall fuzzer complain false-positively from time to time.
It does not look like we need this warning at all, because the behaviour
changed quite a long time ago (2.6.39), and if an application relies on
the old API, it gets EPERM anyway and can issue a warning by itself.
So let us zap the warning in kernel.
