- Test describing a clear distinction between signal states - delivered and

This would be clearer if it said more positiviely what the relationship between these things is actually expected to be and how they're tested. Right now it's a bit hard to tell what the test is actually verifying.
+void handler_verify_ucontext(int signo, siginfo_t *info, void *uc) +{
- int ret;
- /* Kernel dumps ucontext with USR2 blocked */
- ret = sigismember(&(((ucontext_t *)uc)->uc_sigmask), SIGUSR2);
- ksft_test_result(ret == 1, "USR2 in ucontext\n");
"USR2 blocked in ucontext".
- raise(SIGUSR2);
+}
A comment explaining that we're verifying that the signal is blocked might be good (I think that's what this is doing?). We're also not checking the return value of raise() anywhere in the program, this would be a useful diagnostic.
- /* SEGV blocked during handler execution, delivered on return */
- raise(SIGPIPE);
- ksft_print_msg("SEGV bypassed successfully\n");
SIGPIPE or SIGEGV?
- /* SIGPIPE has been blocked in sa_mask, but ucontext is invariant */
- ret = sigismember(&(((ucontext_t *)uc)->uc_sigmask), SIGPIPE);
- ksft_test_result(ret == 0, "USR1 not in ucontext\n");
The relationship between the comment and test are not clear here, nor is that between the sigismembber() call and the test name we print?
- /* SIGUSR1 has been blocked, but ucontext is invariant */
- ret = sigismember(&(((ucontext_t *)uc)->uc_sigmask), SIGUSR1);
- ksft_test_result(ret == 0, "SEGV not in ucontext\n");
Similarly here.
- /* add SEGV to blocked mask */
- if (sigemptyset(&act.sa_mask) || sigaddset(&act.sa_mask, SIGPIPE)
|| (sigismember(&act.sa_mask, SIGPIPE) != 1))ksft_exit_fail_msg("Cannot add SEGV to blocked mask\n");
SIGPIPE vs SIGSEGV.
