The latest change of compat_sys_sigpending in commit8f13621abc("sigpending(): move compat to native") has broken it in two ways. First, it tries to write 4 bytes more than userspace expects: sizeof(old_sigset_t) == sizeof(long) == 8 instead of sizeof(compat_old_sigset_t) == sizeof(u32) == 4. Second, on big endian architectures these bytes are being written in the wrong order. This bug was found by strace test suite.

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.
