[RFC PATCH for tip] sched: Fix concurrency ID handling of usermodehelper kthreads

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

 



sched_mm_cid_after_execve does not expect NULL t->mm, but it may happen
if a usermodehelper kthread fails when attempting to execute a binary.

sched_mm_cid_fork can be issued from a usermodehelper kthread, which has
t->flags PF_KTHREAD set.

Fixes: af7f588d8f73 ("sched: Introduce per-memory-map concurrency ID")
