standards/92362: [headers] [patch] Missing SIGPOLL in kernel headers

[Garrett Cooper]

    The OP's claim is wrong. SIGIO is a signal that can be discarded,
whereas SIGPOLL by definition terminates processes.
    From SUSv7 (pardon the poor formatting):

The following signals shall be supported on all implementations
(default actions are explained below the table):

Signal      Default Action  Description

SIGPOLL   T                       Pollable event.

T
    Abnormal termination of the process. The process is terminated
with all the consequences of _exit() except that the status made
available to wait() and waitpid() indicates abnormal termination by
the specified signal.

    From signal(3) (pardon the poor formatting):

     23    SIGIO        discard signal       I/O is possible on a descriptor
                                                           (see fcntl(2))

    SIGPOLL is actually somewhere between SIGIO and SIGIOT (SIBABRT),
but there isn't a 1:1 mapping for the signal definition. This is also
XSI Stream specific (which is not [fully] implemented in [Free]BSD).
SIGIO is also used by fcntl(2) to denote when I/O is available, but
this connotation is not noted in SUSv7 either.
    This item should probably be closed as WONTFIX as we don't
implement SIGPOLL in its proper form.
Thanks,

PS FWIW GNU/Linux needs to be educated on the fact that SIGIO is a
discardable signal on other platforms and not an alias for SIGPOLL on
BSD (especially when they use it as an alias but don't document the
requirement >:(...), because a quick look at some glibc and Linux
headers shows that they are using them as a 1:1 mapping (I am using
Fedora 13 as a reference).
