The function flush_signals clears all pending signals for the process. It may be used by kernel threads when we need to prepare a kernel thread for responding to signals. However using this function for an userspaces processes is incorrect - clearing signals without the program expecting it can cause misbehavior. The raid1 and raid5 code uses flush_signals in its request routine because it wants to prepare for an interruptible wait. This patch drops flush_signals and uses sigprocmask instead to block all signals (including SIGKILL) around the schedule() call. The signals are not lost, but the schedule() call won't respond to them.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
