Subject: Re: [patch 1/8] signal: Prevent exec() race
Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2026 13:35:07 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <apqs6wgDtpdLI-k8@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260904112202.074391651@kernel.org>
Thomas, I can't read this series today, will try on Weekend.
But you didn't reply to
https://lore.kernel.org/all/apgHJj0qH7HlAXKO@redhat.com/
Let me quote that email here:
OK... lets suppose the exiting task T passes exit_signals().
Suppose we have an "ignored" timer tmr. Another sub-thread calls
do_sigaction() -> posixtimer_sig_unignore() and finds that tmr
in ->ignored_posix_timers list.
But posixtimer_queue_sigqueue() doesn't check PF_EXITING, I guess
it should check it too?
Or perhaps it makes more sense to check PF_EXITING in
posixtimer_get_target() ?
and at first glance it seems that this version doesn't differ in this respect?
Sorry if I missed something (again ;) but I'd better ask just in case.
Oleg.
