A regression caused by 854a6ed56839 ("signal: Add restore_user_sigmask()") caused users of epoll_pwait, io_pgetevents, and ppoll to notice a latent problem in signal handling during these syscalls.
That patch (854a6ed56839) moved the signal_pending() check closer to restoring of the user sigmask. But, it failed to update the error code accordingly. From the userspace perspective, the patch increased the time window for the signal discovery and subsequent delivery to the userspace, but did not always adjust the errno afterwards. The behavior before 854a6ed56839a was that the signals were dropped after the error code was decided. This resulted in lost signals but the userspace did not notice it as the syscalls had finished executing the core functionality and the error codes returned notified success.
For all the syscalls that receive a sigmask from the userland, the user sigmask is to be in effect through the syscall execution. At the end of syscall, sigmask of the current process is restored to what it was before the switch over to user sigmask. But, for this to be true in practice, the sigmask should be restored only at the the point we change the saved_sigmask. Anything before that loses signals. And, anything after is just pointless as the signal is already lost by restoring the sigmask.

Note that this patch returns interrupted errors (EINTR, ERESTARTNOHAND, etc) only when there is no other error. If there is a signal and an error like EINVAL, the syscalls return -EINVAL rather than the interrupted error codes.

Backport to 5.0 requires dropping the io_uring.c diff.
Changes since v2: * added back the reviewed-by tag * fixed missing local definition in io_uring.c Changes since v1: * updated the commit text for more context of the pre-existing condition * added stable tags as requested
