This tightens up __dequeue_signal a little. It also avoids doing
recalc_sigpending twice in a row, instead doing it once in dequeue_signal.

Move the fallback arch_vma_name() to a sensible place (kernel/signal.c).
Currently it's in fs/proc/task_mmu.c, a file that is dependent on both
CONFIG_PROC_FS and CONFIG_MMU being enabled, but it's used from
kernel/signal.c from where it is called unconditionally.

Suresh points out that commit b0423a0d9cc836b2c3d796623cd19236bfedfe63
broke the semantics of a synchronous signal like SIGSEGV occurring
recursively inside its own handler handler (or, indeed, any other
context when the signal was blocked).
That was unintentional, and this fixes things up by reinstating the old
semantics, but without reverting the cleanups.

This patch adds a call to the extended security_task_kill hook introduced by
the prior patch to the kill_proc_info_as_uid function so that these signals
can be properly mediated by security modules. It also updates the existing

With this patch zap_process() sets SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT while sending SIGKILL to
the thread group. This means that a TASK_TRACED task
1. Will be awakened by signal_wake_up(1)
2. Can't sleep again via ptrace_notify()
3. Can't go to do_signal_stop() after return
from ptrace_stop() in get_signal_to_deliver()
So we can remove all ptrace related stuff from coredump path.

send_sigqueue() checks PF_EXITING, then locks p->sighand->siglock. This is
unsafe: 'p' can exit in between and set ->sighand = NULL. The race is
theoretical, the window is tiny and irqs are disabled by the caller, so I
don't think we need the fix for -stable tree.
Convert send_sigqueue() to use lock_task_sighand() helper.
Also, delete 'p->flags & PF_EXITING' re-check, it is unneeded and the
comment is wrong.

do_signal_stop() considers 'thread_group_empty()' as a special case.
This was needed to avoid taking tasklist_lock. Since this lock is
unneeded any longer, we can remove this special case and simplify
the code even more.
Also, before this patch, finish_stop() was called with stop_count == -1
for 'thread_group_empty()' case. This is not strictly wrong, but confusing
and unneeded.

__exit_signal() does important cleanups atomically under ->siglock. It is
also called from copy_process's error path. This is not good, for example we
can't move __unhash_process() under ->siglock for that reason.
We should not mix these 2 paths, just look at ugly 'if (p->sighand)' under
'bad_fork_cleanup_sighand:' label. For copy_process() case it is sufficient
to just backout copy_signal(), nothing more.
Again, nobody can see this task yet. For CLONE_THREAD case we just decrement
signal->count, otherwise nobody can see this ->signal and we can free it
lockless.
This patch assumes it is safe to do exit_thread_group_keys() without
tasklist_lock.

The only caller of exit_sighand(tsk) is copy_process's error path. We can
call __exit_sighand() directly and kill exit_sighand().
This 'tsk' was not yet registered in pid_hash[] or init_task.tasks, it has no
external references, nobody can see it, and
IF (clone_flags & CLONE_SIGHAND)
At least 'current' has a reference to ->sighand, this
means atomic_dec_and_test(sighand->count) can't be true.
ELSE
Nobody can see this ->sighand, this means we can free it
without any locking.

Add lock_task_sighand() helper and converts group_send_sig_info() to use
it. Hopefully we will have more users soon.
This patch also removes '!sighand->count' and '!p->usage' checks, I think
they both are bogus, racy and unneeded (but probably it makes sense to
restore them as BUG_ON()s).
->sighand is cleared and it's ->count is decremented in release_task() with
sighand->siglock held, so it is a bug to have '!p->usage || !->count' after
we already locked and verified it is the same. On the other hand, an
already dead task without ->sighand can have a non-zero ->usage due to
ptrace, for example.
If we read the stale value of ->sighand we must see the change after
spin_lock(), because that change was done while holding that same old
->sighand.siglock.

This patch borrows a clever Hugh's 'struct anon_vma' trick.
Without tasklist_lock held we can't trust task->sighand until we locked it
and re-checked that it is still the same.
But this means we don't need to defer 'kmem_cache_free(sighand)'. We can
return the memory to slab immediately, all we need is to be sure that
sighand->siglock can't dissapear inside rcu protected section.
To do so we need to initialize ->siglock inside ctor function,
SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU does the rest.

After looking at the problem of init calling exec some more I figured out
an easy way to make the code work.
The actual symptom without out this patch is that all threads will die
except pid == 1, and the thread calling exec. The thread calling exec will
wait forever for pid == 1 to die.
Since pid == 1 does not install a handler for SIGKILL it will never die.
This modifies the tests for init from current->pid == 1 to the equivalent
current == child_reaper. And then it causes exec in the ugly case to
modify child_reaper.
The only weird symptom is that you wind up with an init process that
doesn't have the oldest start time on the box.

While rooting aroung in the signal code trying to understand how to fix the
SIG_IGN ploy (set sig handler to SIG_IGN and flood system with high speed
repeating timers) I came across what, I think, is a problem in sigaction()
in that when processing a SIG_IGN request it flushes signals from 1 to
SIGRTMIN and leaves the rest. Attempt to fix this.

This patch removes checks for ->si_code == SI_TIMER from send_signal,
specific_send_sig_info, __group_send_sig_info.
I think posix-timers.c used these functions some time ago, now it sends
signals via send_{,group_}sigqueue, so these hooks are unneeded.

This patch simplifies some checks for magic siginfo values. It should not
change the behaviour in any way.

I could seldom reproduce a deadlock with a task not killable in T state
(TASK_STOPPED, not TASK_TRACED) by attaching a NPTL threaded program to
gdb, by segfaulting the task and triggering a core dump while some other
task is executing exit_group and while one task is in ptrace_attached
TASK_STOPPED state (not TASK_TRACED yet). This originated from a gdb
bugreport (the fact gdb was segfaulting the task wasn't a kernel bug), but
I just incidentally noticed the gdb bug triggered a real kernel bug as
well.
Most threads hangs in exit_mm because the core_dumping is still going, the
core dumping hangs because the stopped task doesn't exit, the stopped task
can't wakeup because it has SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT set, hence the deadlock.
To me it seems that the problem is that the force_sig_specific(SIGKILL) in
zap_threads is a noop if the task has PF_PTRACED set (like in this case
because gdb is attached). The __ptrace_unlink does nothing because the
signal->flags is set to SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT|SIGNAL_STOP_DEQUEUED (verified).
The above info also shows that the stopped task hit a race and got the stop
signal (presumably by the ptrace_attach, only the attach, state is still
TASK_STOPPED and gdb hangs waiting the core before it can set it to
TASK_TRACED) after one of the thread invoked the core dump (it's the core
dump that sets signal->flags to SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT).
So beside the fact nobody would wakeup the task in __ptrace_unlink (the
state is _not_ TASK_TRACED), there's a secondary problem in the signal
handling code, where a task should ignore the ptrace-sigstops as long as
SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT is set (or the wakeup in __ptrace_unlink path wouldn't be
enough).
So I attempted to make this patch that seems to fix the problem. There
were various ways to fix it, perhaps you prefer a different one, I just
opted to the one that looked safer to me.
I also removed the clearing of the stopped bits from the zap_other_threads
(zap_other_threads was safe unlike zap_threads). I don't like useless
code, this whole NPTL signal/ptrace thing is already unreadable enough and
full of corner cases without confusing useless code into it to make it even
less readable. And if this code is really needed, then you may want to
explain why it's not being done in the other paths that sets
SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT at least.
Even after this patch I still wonder who serializes the read of
p->ptrace in zap_threads.
Patch is called ptrace-core_dump-exit_group-deadlock-1.

The majority of the sys_tkill() and sys_tgkill() function code is
duplicated between the two of them. This patch pulls the duplication out
into a separate function -- do_tkill() -- and lets sys_tkill() and
sys_tgkill() be simple wrappers around it. This should make it easier to
maintain in light of future changes.

This lock is used in sigqueue_free(), but it is always equal to
current->sighand->siglock, so we don't need to keep it in the struct
sigqueue.
