I understand now why you are suggesting another approach. There are lot of cases that could be affected by the removal of "if (signal_pending()) return restart_syscall();" in copy_process. I just shiver at the thought of leaving the code that way. That is just leaving a mess for later and the signal handling code already has way too many of those. So I am going to try and work through all of the cases. I might even implement queueing shared signals for after the fork. As it is looking increasingly less difficult. Eric
