Commit Message

Adhemerval Zanella Netto Dec. 31, 2019, 7:31 p.m. UTC
The fix for BZ#10815 requires decouple SIGTIMER and SIGCANCEL.  The
POSIX timer threads created to handle SIGEV_THREAD will have the
SIGTIMER blocked but it should be able to cancel the created created
(which in turn requires SIGCANCEL unblocked).

This patch also a new internal symbol, __contain_internal_signal, which
checks if the sigset_t contains any internal signal.  It is used to
refactor and move the logic to check and remove the internal signal
to internal-signals.h.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and i686-linux-gnu.

How so?  I don't see why, sorry.
