[PATCH 4.2.y-ckt 097/211] proc: actually make proc_fd_permission() thread-friendly

From: Kamal Mostafa
Date: Tue Jan 05 2016 - 15:26:13 EST


4.2.8-ckt1 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 54708d2858e79a2bdda10bf8a20c80eb96c20613 upstream.

The commit 96d0df79f264 ("proc: make proc_fd_permission() thread-friendly")
fixed the access to /proc/self/fd from sub-threads, but introduced another
problem: a sub-thread can't access /proc/<tid>/fd/ or /proc/thread-self/fd
if generic_permission() fails.

Change proc_fd_permission() to check same_thread_group(pid_task(), current).

Fixes: 96d0df79f264 ("proc: make proc_fd_permission() thread-friendly")
