Introduces the TRAP_PERF si_code, and associated siginfo_t field si_perf. These will be used by the perf event subsystem to send signals (if requested) to the task where an event occurred.

This patch landed in linux-next as commit fb6cc127e0b6 ("signal: Introduce TRAP_PERF si_code and si_perf to siginfo"). It causes regression on my test systems (arm 32bit and 64bit). Most systems fails to boot in the given time frame. I've observed that there is a timeout waiting for udev to populate /dev and then also during the network interfaces configuration. Reverting this commit, together with 97ba62b27867 ("perf: Add support for SIGTRAP on perf events") to let it compile, on top of next-20210420 fixes the issue.

Thanks, this is weird for sure and nothing in particular stands out.

I have questions: -- Can you please share your config? -- Also, can you share how you run this? Can it be reproduced in qemu? -- How did you derive this patch to be at fault? Why not just 97ba62b27867, given you also need to revert it?

If you are unsure which patch exactly it is, can you try just reverting 97ba62b27867 and see what happens?

Thanks, -- Marco
