Subject: [PATCH 14/18] flag parameters: NONBLOCK in signalfd

This patch adds support for the SFD_NONBLOCK flag to signalfd4.  The
additional changes needed are minimal thanks to the previous preparation.

The following test must be adjusted for architectures other than x86 and
x86-64 and in case the syscall numbers changed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/syscall.h>

#ifndef __NR_signalfd4
# ifdef __x86_64__
#  define __NR_signalfd4 289
# elif defined __i386__
#  define __NR_signalfd4 327
# else
#  error "need __NR_signalfd4"
# endif
#endif

#define SFD_NONBLOCK (1 << 1)

int
main (void)
{
  sigset_t ss;
  sigemptyset (&ss);
  sigaddset (&ss, SIGUSR1);
  int fd = syscall (__NR_signalfd4, -1, &ss, 8, 0);
  if (fd == -1)
    {
      puts ("signalfd4(0) failed");
      return 1;
    }
  int fl = fcntl (fd, F_GETFL);
  if (fl == -1)
    {
      puts ("fcntl failed");
      return 1;
    }
  if (fl & O_NONBLOCK)
    {
      puts ("signalfd4(0) set non-blocking mode");
      return 1;
    }
  close (fd);

  fd = syscall (__NR_signalfd4, -1, &ss, 8, SFD_NONBLOCK);
  if (fd == -1)
    {
      puts ("signalfd4(SFD_NONBLOCK) failed");
      return 1;
    }
  fl = fcntl (fd, F_GETFL);
  if (fl == -1)
    {
      puts ("fcntl failed");
      return 1;
    }
  if ((fl & O_NONBLOCK) == 0)
    {
      puts ("signalfd4(SFD_NONBLOCK) does not set non-blocking mode");
      return 1;
    }
  close (fd);

  puts ("OK");

  return 0;
}
