Subject[1/1] eventfs: pseudo fs which allows to bind events to file descriptors.
Hello.

This pseudo fs allows to bind a file descriptor to different kinds of
events, which allows to poll them using epoll().

This particular morning hack supports signals only.

If idea is supposed to be right, I can cook up POSIX timers support.

Signal delivery note.
If special flag is set in signalfd(signo, flag), then signals are _not_
delivered through pending mask update but only through epoll queue.
(Copied from kevent).

Userspace signal code and patch itself can be found at:
http://tservice.net.ru/~s0mbre/archive/eventfs/

signal.c is also attached for interested reader.
