| |
complete_signal() checks SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE before it starts to destroy the thread group, today this is unnecessary and even not 100% correct.
After the previous change we can rely on sig_task_ignored(); sig_fatal(sig) && SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE can only be true if we actually want to kill this task.
And it does not look right. fatal_signal_pending() should always imply that the whole thread group (except ->group_exit_task if it is not NULL) is killed, this check breaks the rule.
This explains WARN_ON(!JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING) in task_participate_group_stop() triggered by the test-case from Dmitry:
int main() { int pid = 1; ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid, 0, 0); ptrace(PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, pid, 0, PTRACE_O_EXITKILL); sleep(1); return 0; }
do_signal_stop()->signal_group_exit() returns false because SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT is not set, but task_set_jobctl_pending() checks fatal_signal_pending() and does not set JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING.
The test-case above needs root and (correctly) crashes the kernel, but we can trigger the same warning inside the container or using another test-case:
static int init(void *arg) { for (;;) pause(); }
int main(void) { char stack[16 * 1024];
for (;;) { int pid = clone(init, stack + sizeof(stack)/2, CLONE_NEWPID | SIGCHLD, NULL); assert(pid > 0);
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid, 0, 0) == 0); assert(waitpid(-1, NULL, WSTOPPED) == pid);
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_DETACH, pid, 0, SIGSTOP) == 0); assert(syscall(__NR_tkill, pid, SIGKILL) == 0); assert(pid == wait(NULL)); } }
