The following patches should be close. I took some patches I haven't
taken the time to merge yet that make PIDTYPE_TGID not a hack.
Updated the code that deals with signals to handle PIDTYPE_TGID.
Pushed the pid type down from the signal senders all of the way
down into __send_signal. That work could probably use being
split into more than one patch for readability, but it seems
reasonble and less of a hack than the "bool group" we have
currently.
I think I have gotten all of the places we send signals to multiple
processes. But I have yet to make an exhaustive examination. I would
appreciate some review feedback before I burn a day doing that.
All in all this changes a little more than I might hope for but it seems
a nicely targted cleanup that sorts out the fork issue.
Comments please.
I think I am 99% of the way to solving this cleanly but any feedback would
be very appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
Eric W. Biederman (11):
pids: Initialize leader_pid in init_task
pids: Move task_pid_type into sched/signal.h
pids: Compute task_tgid using signal->leader_pid
kvm: Don't open code task_pid in kvm_vcpu_ioctl
pids: Move the pgrp and session pid pointers from task_struct to
signal_struct
pid: Implement PIDTYPE_TGID
signal: Deliver group signals via PIDTYPE_TGID not PIDTYPE_PID
signal: Use PIDTYPE_TGID to clearly store where file signals will be sent
tty_io: Use do_send_sig_info in __do_SACK to forcibly kill tasks
signal: Push pid type from signal senders down into __send_signal
signal: Ignore all but multi-process signals that come in during fork.
