    wait: swap EXIT_ZOMBIE and EXIT_DEAD to hide EXIT_TRACE from user-space · ad86622b
    Oleg Nesterov 提交于
    get_task_state() uses the most significant bit to report the state to
    user-space, this means that EXIT_ZOMBIE->EXIT_TRACE->EXIT_DEAD transition
    can be noticed via /proc as Z -> X -> Z change.  Note that this was
    possible even before EXIT_TRACE was introduced.
    
    This is not really bad but imho it make sense to hide EXIT_TRACE from
    user-space completely.  So the patch simply swaps EXIT_ZOMBIE and
    EXIT_DEAD, this way EXIT_TRACE will be seen as EXIT_ZOMBIE by user-space.
