Refer to issue #8867 for details and rational.
Convert sigset_t to an array type so that more than 32 signals can be supported.
Why not use a uin64_t?
- Using a uin32_t is more flexible if we decide to increase the number of signals beyound 64.
- 64-bit accesses are not atomic, at least not on 32-bit ARMv7-M and similar
- Keeping the base type as uint32_t does not introduce additional overhead due to padding to achieve 64-bit alignment of uin64_t
- Some architectures still supported by NuttX do not support uin64_t
types,
Increased the number of signals to 64. This matches Linux. This will support all xsignals defined by Linux and also 32 real time signals (also like Linux).
