Now that we do not check __state = __TASK_TRACED, we need lock_task_sighand(). The tracee can be already woken up by ptrace_resume(), but it is possible that it didn't clear DELAY_WAKEKILL yet. Now, before we take ->siglock, the tracee can exit and another thread can do wait() and reap this task. Also, I think the comment above should be updated. I agree, it makes sense to re-check JOBCTL_DELAY_WAKEKILL under siglock just for clarity, but we no longer need to do this to close the race; jobctl &= ~JOBCTL_DELAY_WAKEKILL and wake_up_state() are safe even if JOBCTL_DELAY_WAKEKILL was already cleared. > @@ -2307,6 +2307,7 @@ static int ptrace_stop(int exit_code, int why, int > clear_code, > > /* LISTENING can be set only during STOP traps, clear it */ > current->jobctl &= ~JOBCTL_LISTENING; > + current->jobctl &= ~JOBCTL_DELAY_WAKEKILL; minor, but current->jobctl &= ~(JOBCTL_LISTENING | JOBCTL_DELAY_WAKEKILL); looks better.
