Subject: [PATCH] signal: Restore the stop PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT
Date: Tue, 12 Feb 2019 22:09:14 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ef8c5nyt.fsf_-_@xmission.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190212165022.GA29263@redhat.com> (Oleg Nesterov's message of "Tue, 12 Feb 2019 17:50:23 +0100")
In the middle of do_exit() there is there is a call
"ptrace_event(PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT, code);" That call places the process
in TACKED_TRACED aka "(TASK_WAKEKILL | __TASK_TRACED)" and waits for
for the debugger to release the task or SIGKILL to be delivered.
Skipping past dequeue_signal when we know a fatal signal has already
been delivered resulted in SIGKILL remaining pending and
TIF_SIGPENDING remaining set. This in turn caused the
scheduler to not sleep in PTACE_EVENT_EXIT as it figured
a fatal signal was pending. This also caused ptrace_freeze_traced
in ptrace_check_attach to fail because it left a per thread
SIGKILL pending which is what fatal_signal_pending tests for.
This difference in signal state caused strace to report
strace: Exit of unknown pid NNNNN ignored
Therefore update the signal handling state like dequeue_signal
would when removing a per thread SIGKILL, by removing SIGKILL
from the per thread signal mask and clearing TIF_SIGPENDING.

Ivan this change fixes the issues you reported to me. Can you confirm?
Oleg this looks like the most conservative regression fix I can manage.
