Adhemerval Zanella d2dc5467c6 Filter out NPTL internal signals (BZ #22391)
This patch filters out the internal NPTL signals (SIGCANCEL/SIGTIMER and
SIGSETXID) from signal functions.  GLIBC on Linux requires both signals to
proper implement pthread cancellation, posix timers, and set*id posix
thread synchronization.

And not filtering out the internal signal is 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.

  - It might also to security issues if SIGSETXID is masked and set*id
    functions are called (some threads might have effective user or group
    id different from the rest).

The changes are basically:

  - Change __is_internal_signal to bool and used on all signal function
    that has a signal number as input.  Also for signal function which accepts
    signals sets (sigset_t) it assumes that canonical function were used to
    add/remove signals which lead to some input simplification.

  - Fix tst-sigset.c to avoid check for SIGCANCEL/SIGTIMER and SIGSETXID.
    It is rewritten to check each signal indidually and to check realtime
    signals using canonical macros.

  - Add generic __clear_internal_signals and __is_internal_signal
    version since both symbols are used on generic implementations.

  - Remove superflous sysdeps/nptl/sigfillset.c.

  - Remove superflous SIGTIMER handling on Linux __is_internal_signal
    since it is the same of SIGCANCEL.

  - Remove dangling define and obvious comment on nptl/sigaction.c.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.

	[BZ #22391]
	* nptl/sigaction.c (__sigaction): Use __is_internal_signal to
	check for internal nptl signals.
	* nptl/sigaction.c (__sigaction): Likewise.
	* signal/sigaddset.c (sigaddset): Likewise.
	* signal/sigdelset.c (sigdelset): Likewise.
	* sysdeps/posix/signal.c (__bsd_signal): Likewise.
	* sysdeps/posix/sigset.c (sigset): Call and check sigaddset return
	value.
	* signal/sigfillset.c (sigfillset): User __clear_internal_signals
	to filter out internal nptl signals.
	* signal/tst-sigset.c (do_test): Check ech signal indidually and
	also check realtime signals using standard macros.
	* sysdeps/generic/internal-signals.h (__clear_internal_signals,
	__is_internal_signal, __libc_signal_block_all,
	__libc_signal_block_app, __libc_signal_restore_set): New functions.
	* sysdeps/nptl/sigfillset.c: Remove file.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/internal-signals.h (__is_internal_signal):
	Change return to bool.
	(__clear_internal_signals): Remove SIGTIMER clean since it is
	equal to SIGCANEL on Linux.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/sigtimedwait.c (__sigtimedwait): Assume
	signal set was constructed using standard functions.

Adhemerval Zanella 92aabad9b2 Rename nptl-signals.h to internal-signals.h
This patch renames the nptl-signals.h header to internal-signals.h.
On Linux the definitions and functions are not only NPTL related, but
used for other POSIX definitions as well (for instance SIGTIMER for
posix times, SIGSETXID for id functions, and signal block/restore
helpers) and since generic functions will be places and used in generic
implementation it makes more sense to decouple it from NPTL.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu.

	* sysdeps/nptl/nptl-signals.h: Move to ...
	* sysdeps/generic/internal-signals.h: ... here.  Adjust internal
	comments.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/internal-signals.h: Add include guards.
	(__nptl_is_internal_signal): Rename to __is_internal_signal.
	(__nptl_clear_internal_signals): Rename to __clear_internal_signals.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/raise.c: Adjust nptl-signal.h to
	include-signals.h rename.
	* nptl/pthreadP.h: Likewise.
	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/spawni.c (__spawni_child): Call
	__is_internal_signal instead of __nptl_is_internal_signal.
