Now # that signal_pending includes wake ups for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL this hack # in dump_emitted by the coredump code no longer works. # # Make the coredump code more robust by explicitly testing for all of # the wakeup conditions the coredump code supports. This prevents # new wakeup conditions from breaking the coredump code, as well # as fixing the current issue. # # The filesystem code that the coredump code uses already limits # itself to only aborting on fatal_signal_pending. So it should # not develop surprising wake-up reasons either. # # v2: Don't remove the now unnecessary code in prepare_signal. # # Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # Fixes: 12db8b690010 ("entry: Add support for TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL") # Reported-by: Olivier Langlois # Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
