Modified files:
sys/i386/i386 mem.c
Log:
Check for signals while reading /dev/urandom. Reading 10MB from
/dev/urandom takes about 38 seconds on a P5/133. It is useful
to be able to kill such reads almost immediately. Processes
doing such reads are now scheduled so their denial of service
is no worse than that of processes looping in user mode.
