             Summary: Mesos containerizer helper function signalSafeWriteStatus 
is not AS-Safe
                 Key: MESOS-6428
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-6428
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: containerization
    Affects Versions: 1.1.0
            Reporter: Benjamin Bannier


In {{src/slave/containerizer/mesos/launch.cpp}} a helper function 
{{signalSafeWriteStatus}} is defined. Its name seems to suggest that this 
function is safe to call in e.g., signal handlers, and it is used in this 
file's {{signalHandler}} for exactly that purpose.

Currently this function is not AS-Safe since it e.g., allocates memory via 
construction of {{string}} instances, and might destructively modify {{errno}}.

We should clean up this function to be in fact AS-Safe.
