Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux
575a0ae974
As suggested by Andrew Morton in [1] add selftests for the new sys_pidfd_send_signal() syscall: /* test_pidfd_send_signal_syscall_support */ Test whether the pidfd_send_signal() syscall is supported and the tests can be run or need to be skipped. /* test_pidfd_send_signal_simple_success */ Test whether sending a signal via a pidfd works. /* test_pidfd_send_signal_exited_fail */ Verify that sending a signal to an already exited process fails with ESRCH. /* test_pidfd_send_signal_recycled_pid_fail */ Verify that a recycled pid cannot be signaled via a pidfd referring to an already exited process that had the same pid (cf. [2], [3]).

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
