complete_signal() checks SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE before it starts to destroy the
thread group, today this is wrong in many ways.
If nothing else, fatal_signal_pending() should always imply that the whole
thread group (except ->group_exit_task if it is not NULL) is killed, this
check breaks the rule.
After the previous changes we can rely on sig_task_ignored(); sig_fatal(sig)
&& SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE can only be true if we actually want to kill this task
and sig == SIGKILL OR it is traced and debugger can intercept the signal.
This should hopefully fix the problem reported by Dmitry. This test-case
static int init(void *arg)
{
for (;;)
pause();
}
int main(void)
{
char stack[16 * 1024];
for (;;) {
int pid = clone(init, stack + sizeof(stack)/2,
CLONE_NEWPID | SIGCHLD, NULL);
assert(pid > 0);
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid, 0, 0) == 0);
assert(waitpid(-1, NULL, WSTOPPED) == pid);
assert(ptrace(PTRACE_DETACH, pid, 0, SIGSTOP) == 0);
assert(syscall(__NR_tkill, pid, SIGKILL) == 0);
assert(pid == wait(NULL));
}
}
triggers the WARN_ON_ONCE(!(task->jobctl & JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING)) in
task_participate_group_stop(). do_signal_stop()->signal_group_exit()
checks SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT and return false, but task_set_jobctl_pending()
checks fatal_signal_pending() and does not set JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING.
And his should fix the minor security problem reported by Kyle,
SECCOMP_RET_TRACE can miss fatal_signal_pending() the same way if
the task is the root of a pid namespace.
