[PATCH 4.20 81/92] signal: Restore the stop PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Feb 18 2019 - 08:48:48 EST
4.20-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit cf43a757fd49442bc38f76088b70c2299eed2c2f upstream.
In the middle of do_exit() there is there is a call
"ptrace_event(PTRACE_EVENT_EXIT, code);" That call places the process
in TACKED_TRACED aka "(TASK_WAKEKILL | __TASK_TRACED)" and waits for
for the debugger to release the task or SIGKILL to be delivered.
Skipping past dequeue_signal when we know a fatal signal has already
been delivered resulted in SIGKILL remaining pending and
TIF_SIGPENDING remaining set. This in turn caused the
scheduler to not sleep in PTACE_EVENT_EXIT as it figured
a fatal signal was pending. This also caused ptrace_freeze_traced
in ptrace_check_attach to fail because it left a per thread
SIGKILL pending which is what fatal_signal_pending tests for.
This difference in signal state caused strace to report
strace: Exit of unknown pid NNNNN ignored
Therefore update the signal handling state like dequeue_signal
would when removing a per thread SIGKILL, by removing SIGKILL
from the per thread signal mask and clearing TIF_SIGPENDING.
