From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Mon, 26 Jun 2006 07:26:10 +0000 (-0700) Subject: [PATCH] coredump: copy_process: don't check SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT X-Git-Tag: v2.6.18-rc1~734 X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cf2dfbfbf4c5cb489ea12defd85a484307b955b8;p=linux-2.6 [PATCH] coredump: copy_process: don't check SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT After the previous patch SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT implies a pending SIGKILL, we can remove this check from copy_process() because we already checked !signal_pending().
