[PATCH v2 2/7] signal: retarget_shared_pending: considershared/unblocked signals only

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Mon Apr 18 2011 - 09:45:53 EST


exit_signals() checks signal_pending() before retarget_shared_pending() but
this is suboptimal. We can avoid the while_each_thread() loop in case when
there are no shared signals visible to us.

Add the "shared_pending.signal & ~blocked" check. We don't use tsk->blocked
directly but pass ~blocked as an argument, this is needed for the next patch.

Note: we can optimize this more. while_each_thread(t) can check t->blocked
into account and stop after every pending signal has the new target, see the
next patch.
