Subject: [RFC][PATCH 7/7][v4] SI_TKILL: Masquerade si_pid when crossing pid ns boundary
Date: Wed, 24 Dec 2008 03:53:31 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081224115331.GG8020@us.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20081224114414.GA7879@us.ibm.com>


From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Subject: [RFC][PATCH 7/7][v4] SI_TKILL: Masquerade si_pid when crossing pid ns boundary

When sending a signal to a process in a descendant namespace, ->si_pid
must be set to the pid of sender in receiver's namespace. But if the
receiver is exiting (theoretically, ns == NULL), just set ->si_pid to
active pid namespace of sender (receiver won't see the signal anyway ?).
