The patch titled
handle the multi-threaded init's exit() properly
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
handle-the-multi-threaded-inits-exit-properly.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree
------------------------------------------------------
Subject: handle the multi-threaded init's exit() properly
From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx>
With or without this patch, multi-threaded init's are not fully supported,
but do_exit() is completely wrong. This becomes a real problem when we
support pid namespaces.
1. do_exit() panics when the main thread of /sbin/init exits. It should not
until the whole thread group exits. Move the code below, under the
"if (group_dead)" check.
Note: this means that forget_original_parent() can use an already dead
child_reaper()'s task_struct. This is OK for /sbin/init because
- do_wait() from alive sub-thread still can reap a zombie, we iterate
over all sub-thread's ->children lists
- do_notify_parent() will wakeup some alive sub-thread because it sends
the group-wide signal
However, we should remove choose_new_parent()->BUG_ON(reaper->exit_state)
for this.
2. We are playing games with ->nsproxy->pid_ns. This code is bogus today, and
it has to be changed anyway when we really support pid namespaces, just
remove it.
