If you start reformmating it please get it completely right:

if (info == SEND_SIG_NOINFO ||
(!is_si_special(info) && SI_FROMUSER(info))) {
/* Let audit system see the signal */
error = audit_signal_info(sig, t);
if (error)
return error;
error = -EPERM;
if ((sig != SIGCONT ||
(task_session_nr(current) != task_session_nr(t))) &&
(current->euid ^ t->suid) && (current->euid ^ t->uid) &&
(current->uid ^ t->suid) && (current->uid ^ t->uid) &&
!capable(CAP_KILL))
return error;
}

Christoph,

I ran it through scripts/checkpatch.pl - it said it was ok - and I see
that other places in this file contain code of this style -
do_sigaltstack() for example.

Could you give me a reference for "completely right"? Its not obvious to
me that Documentation/CodingStyle is what you are using as a reference.

Thanks

Andrew

checkpatch is just a tool pointing to some common mistakes, not the
definite authority for proving that code is stylistically correct.

Similar to the fact that I hope you wouldn't claim your code was working
correctly only because gcc compiled it without warnings...
