Subject: [RFC][PATCH -mm] Freezer: Do not allow freezing processes to clear TIF_SIGPENDING
Date: Fri, 19 Oct 2007 00:22:35 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200710190022.36145.rjw@sisk.pl> (raw)

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>

Do not allow processes to clear their TIF_SIGPENDING if TIF_FREEZE is set,
to prevent them from racing with the freezer (like mysqld does, for example).
