[PATCH 1/1] ptrace: do_notify_parent_cldstop: fix the wrong->nsproxy usage

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Mon May 25 2009 - 15:00:29 EST


If the non-traced sub-thread calls do_notify_parent_cldstop(), we send the
notification to group_leader->real_parent and we report group_leader's pid.

But, if group_leader is traced we use the wrong ->parent->nsproxy->pid_ns,
the tracer and parent can live in different namespaces. Change the code
to use "parent" instead of tsk->parent.
