Over the past month I've finally managed to correct masking semantics of crash signals (SIGSEGV, SIGTRAP, SIGILL, SIGFPE, SIGBUS). Additionally I've fixed masking semantics in forks(2) and vforks(2) (they trigger a crash signal SIGTRAP). There is remaining work in signal semantics for other types of events (mainly thread related). The coverage of signal code in ptrace(2) regression tests keeps continuously incrementing. http://blog.netbsd.org/tnf/entry/continuation_of_signal_semantics_improvements Plan for the next milestone Keep preparing kernel fixes and after thorough verification applying them to the mainline distribution. This work was sponsored by The NetBSD Foundation.
