ia64, s390-64, sparc64, x86_64 and alpha ports has their own
implementations of sigprocmask(). They all but alpha do exactly
what generic sigprocmask() except the check and clear SIGCANCEL
and SIGSETXID flags.

In this patch, the NEED_CLEAR_SIGCANCEL_SIGSETXID option is
introduced and disabled for that ports which allows to swith
them to generic implementation.

	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sigprocmask.c: Introduce
	NEED_CLEAR_SIGCANCEL_SIGSETXID option for consolidation
	of Linux sigprocmask() implementation;
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ia64/sigprocmask.c: Consolidate
	sigprocmask() implementation;
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/s390/s390-64/sigprocmask.c: Likewise;
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sparc/sparc64/sigprocmask.c: Likewise;
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/sigprocmask.c: Likewise.

Although the manual do not state the Linux implementation detail I think
all supported Linux architecture should have the same semantic regarding 
SIGCANCEL and SIGSETXID.  GLIBC on Linux requires both signal to proper
implement both pthread cancellation and set*id function and having
different semanticsis troublesome (a conformant program on a architecture
that does not filter out the signals might inadvertently disable pthread
asynchronous cancellation, set*id synchronization or posix timers).

Also, sigfillset removes SIGCANCEL and SIGSETXID as expected, but
sigaddset and sigdelset does not handle none of internal signals.  I also
think we should ignore internal nptl signals on sigaddset and sigdelset.

And for this specific case I don't see adding compat symbols to keep
the old semantic for the related architectures the best approach.  There
is a canonical way to actually disable pthread cancellation and masking
SIGSETXID would make set*id non POSIX conformant.

What about the following?

---

This patch consolidates the sigprocmask Linux syscall implementation on
sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sigprocmask.c.  The changes are:

  1. For ia64, s390-64, sparc64, and x86_64 the default semantic for
     filter out SIGCANCEL and SIGSETXID is used.  Also the Linux pthread
     semantic is documented in the signal chapter.

  2. A new internal function to check for NPTL internal signals within a
     signal set is added (__nptl_has_internal_signal).  It is used to
     simplify the default sigprocmask.c implementation.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.

	* manual/signal.texi: Add a note about internal pthread signals
	on Linux.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/alpha/sigprocmask.c: Remove file.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/ia64/sigprocmask.c: Likewise.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sparc/sparc64/sigprocmask.c: Likewise.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/sigprocmask.c: Likewise.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/nptl-signals.h
	(__nptl_has_internal_signal): New function.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sigprocmask.c (__sigprocmask):
	Use __nptl_has_internal_signal and __nptl_clear_internal_signals
	function.

I suspected that sigprocmask is buggy and should be fixed as you
suggested here. Now after your explanation I'm convinced with it. But
your patch changes user interface to glibc which may break existing
software.

The most conservative way to proceed with it is to leave the existing
behavior for affected platforms as is. For software compiled against
glibc-2.27 or newer we can use versioning to wire sigprocmask to 
__new_sigprocmask, which would emit warning for x86 and others, and
clear internal signals if they appear.

But I'm not familiar with nptl, and if you think that silent API
change will not hurt users, I'm OK with your patch as is. In this
case I would only ask you to add notes about this changes to NEWS,
and especially about alpha as it is switched to new syscall.

I think the main problem of providing a compat symbol is besides 
interfering with both pthread cancellation and posix timers (a explicit
conformance break), not filtering out NPTL internal signals for set*id 
programs might be a security issue where the user/group id is not 
synchronized over the threads as expected by a POSIX standard.

I have opened BZ#22391 [1] to track this issue. I am also preparing
a patch set to fix this over the signal implementations.
