From addaae9ef7cdbff4e820e024d949a311a47491b3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Wed, 20 Mar 2013 15:08:30 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] coredump: sanitize the setting of signal->group_exit_code Now that the coredumping process can be SIGKILL'ed, the setting of ->group_exit_code in do_coredump() can race with complete_signal() and SIGKILL or 0x80 can be "lost", or wait(status) can report status == SIGKILL | 0x80. But the main problem is that it is not clear to me what should we do if binfmt->core_dump() succeeds but SIGKILL was sent, that is why this patch comes as a separate change. This patch adds 0x80 if ->core_dump() succeeds and the process was not killed. But perhaps we can (should?) re-set ->group_exit_code changed by SIGKILL back to "siginfo->si_signo |= 0x80" in case when core_dumped == T.
