  • Move rcu_copy_process() into kernel/fork.c, which is the only
    user of this inline function.

    This simplifies to the level that
    does not have to be included in it anymore - which change is done
    in a subsequent patch.

  • There's a fair amount of task lifetime management (a.k.a fork()/exit())
    related APIs in , but only a small fraction of
    the users of the generic sched.h header make use of them.

    Move these functions to the header.

  • Linux-0.01 already defined 'current' in the middle of sched.h, so this
    is an ancient historical precedent - but still in a modern kernel it
    looks a bit weird that we have:

    #include

    in the middle of the header.

    Move it further up. If this was done for some obscure dependency
    reasons then we'll trigger and document it.

    Put them next to the other watchdog methods in .

    more so - but it should be renamed in another patch. )

  • 'struct user_struct' was added to sched.h historically, but it's actually

  • …sors into <linux/sched/signal.h>

    task_struct::signal and task_struct::sighand are pointers, which would normally make it
    straightforward to not define those types in sched.h.

    That is not so, because the types are accompanied by a myriad of APIs (macros and inline
    functions) that dereference them.

    Split the types and the APIs out of sched.h and move them into a new header, <linux/sched/signal.h>.

    With this change sched.h does not know about 'struct signal' and 'struct sighand' anymore,
    trying to put accessors into sched.h as a test fails the following way:

    ./include/linux/sched.h: In function ‘test_signal_types’:
    ./include/linux/sched.h:2461:18: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type ‘struct signal_struct’
    ^

    This reduces the size and complexity of sched.h significantly.

    Update all headers and .c code that relied on getting the signal handling
    functionality from <linux/sched.h> to include <linux/sched/signal.h>.

    The list of affected files in the preparatory patch was partly generated by
    grepping for the APIs, and partly by doing coverage build testing, both
    all[yes|mod|def|no]config builds on 64-bit and 32-bit x86, and an array of
    cross-architecture builds.

    Nevertheless some (trivial) build breakage is still expected related to rare
    Kconfig combinations and in-flight patches to various kernel code, but most
    of it should be handled by this patch.
