Subject: [PATCH net] selftests: af_unix: verify SCM_PIDFD pidfd in cmsg_check_dead()
Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2026 14:11:21 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260817061121.239648-1-zhulei_szu@163.com> (raw)
From: Lei Zhu <zhulei@kylinos.cn>
The cmsg_check_dead() function receives an expected_pid parameter but never
actually verifies that the pidfd received via SCM_PIDFD corresponds to that
PID. It only checks the child's exit code via PIDFD_GET_INFO.
Add a PID verification step using get_pid_from_fdinfo_file() to confirm
that the pidfd indeed points to the expected process, matching the
behavior already present in cmsg_check().
Fixes: 861bdc6314a4 ("selftests: net: extend SCM_PIDFD test to cover stale pidfds")
