Subject: [PATCH -mm 1/1] pidns: find_new_reaper() can no longer switch to init_pid_ns.child_reaper
Date: Fri, 25 May 2012 18:00:08 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120525160008.GB16885@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120525155941.GA16885@redhat.com>
find_new_reaper() changes pid_ns->child_reaper, see add0d4df
"pid_ns: zap_pid_ns_processes: fix the ->child_reaper changing".
The original reason has gone away after the previous patch,
->children list must be empty after zap_pid_ns_processes().
However, "can't clear ->child_reaper or leave it alone" is
still true, and now we can not use init_pid_ns.child_reaper.
__unhash_process() relies on the "->child_reaper == parent"
check, but this check does not work if the last exiting task
is also the child reaper.
Change find_new_reaper() to use pid_ns->parent->child_reaper.
