Yeah, I thought about it but it's a little weird code. First of all, we
can't set /proc/sys/kernel/pid_max to a very low value since this is a
system wide setting. So we need to recycle a lot via fork(). Something
along the lines of:
- unshare pid namespace
- fork to create pid 1 in new pid namespace
- cycle with fork() until pid > 300 since pids lower than 300 are
reserved by the kernel.
(That means if we simply use the first fork() after we created pid 1 we
would never be able to recycle the pid since we skip over it. :))
- get pidfd to the pid > 300 we just created
- wait on the pid > 300
- cycle via fork() until we have reached the same pid > 300 again
- send SIGSTOP to that recycled process
- test that we cannot send SIGCONT to this SIGSTOPed task via the pidfd we
received before
- send SIGCONT to the SIGSTOPed recycled pid and exit
