[PATCH] jobs: Fix waitcmd busy loop

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We need to clear gotsigchld in waitproc because it is used as
a loop conditional for the waitcmd case.  Without it waitcmd
may busy loop after a SIGCHLD.

This patch also changes gotsigchld into a volatile sig_atomic_t
to prevent compilers from optimising its accesses away.

Fixes: 6c691b3e5099 ("jobs: Only clear gotsigchld when waiting...")
