Hi Cyrill,

I don't know:) Hm, it looks old code.
arch/i386/kernel/signal.c in 2.4 has similar code.

I guess this code didn't change when copy_siginfo_to_user() was moved
from arch/i386/kernel/signal.c to kernel/signal.c.

Should we change this like copy_siginfo_tu_user() in kernel/signal.c?
Copying si_pid was added in kernel/signal.c.

BTW, it seems same __ST_KILL and default.

Thanks,
Hiroshi
