Rename sigaltstack to signal, and rename the existing test to sigaltstack.c.
Can you elaborate on the benefits if renaming the test?
Also you have such a good information in the cover-letter for this patch - it would be good to include it in the change log for this one or the new test.
Okay.
The new test itself is good. I don't understand the value of renaming. I can see the problems due to not being able to fix stables if the existing test needs fixing. If there are good reasons for renaming, I am all for it.
After looking into some git history, now I understand that "sas" actually has some meaning, although I still can't find its full-form :) I thought that sigaltstack would be a better name, but I guess sas is a subset of sigaltstack as part of SA_ONSTACK. So, let us drop the renaming of the test.
I assume you will be sending a new v6 patch series without the renaming and just the new test?
