      __group_complete_signal(): fix coredump with group stop race · 198466b4
      Oleg Nesterov 提交于
      When __group_complete_signal() sees sig_kernel_coredump() signal, it starts
      the group stop, but sets ->group_exit_task = t in a hope that "t" will
      actually dequeue this signal and invoke do_coredump().  However, by the
      time "t" enters get_signal_to_deliver() it is possible that the signal was
      blocked/ignored or we have another pending !SIG_KERNEL_COREDUMP_MASK signal
      which will be dequeued first.  This means the task could be stopped but not
      killed.
      
      Remove this code from __group_complete_signal().  Note also this patch
      removes the bogus signal_wake_up(t, 1).  This thread can't be
      STOPPED/TRACED, note the corresponding check in wants_signal().

      clone: prepare to recycle CLONE_STOPPED · bdff746a
      Andrew Morton 提交于
      Ulrich says that we never used this clone flags and that nothing should be
      using it.
      
      As we're down to only a single bit left in clone's flags argument, let's add a
      warning to check that no userspace is actually using it.  Hopefully we will
      be able to recycle it.
      
      Roland said:
      
        CLONE_STOPPED was previously used by some NTPL versions when under
        thread_db (i.e.  only when being actively debugged by gdb), but not for a
        long time now, and it never worked reliably when it was used.  Removing it
        seems fine to me.
      
      [akpm@linux-foundation.org: it looks like CLONE_DETACHED is being used]

      It was dumb to make get_task_comm() return void.  Change it to return a

      Since the epoll code is very careful to not nest same instance locks
      allow the recursion.

      vm audit: add VM_DONTEXPAND to mmap for drivers that need it · 2f98735c
      Nick Piggin 提交于
      Drivers that register a ->fault handler, but do not range-check the
      offset argument, must set VM_DONTEXPAND in the vm_flags in order to
      prevent an expanding mremap from overflowing the resource.
      
      I've audited the tree and attempted to fix these problems (usually by
      adding VM_DONTEXPAND where it is not obvious).
