Subject: easy question on syscall control flow


If I drop down from userspace to the kernel to run a syscall, is there any way
for me to get back to that process' userspace without finishing the syscall (ie
through signal handlers, etc.)?

I think I'm doing some extra locking that I don't actually need, and I thought
I'd double-check before removing it.

Thanks,

Chris
