Afaics, currently there are no kernel problems with ptracing init, it can't

signals: fix /sbin/init protection from unwanted signals

The global init has a lot of long standing problems with the unhandled fatal
signals.

- The "is_global_init(current)" check in get_signal_to_deliver()
  protects only the main thread. Sub-thread can dequee the fatal
  signal and shutdown the whole thread group except the main thread.
  If it dequeues SIGSTOP /sbin/init will be stopped, this is not
  right too. Note that we can't use is_global_init(->group_leader),
  this breaks exec and this can't solve other problems we have.

- Even if afterwards ignored, the fatal signals sets SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT
  on delivery. This breaks exec, has other bad implications, and this
  is just wrong.

Introduce the new SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE flag to fix these problems.  It also helps
to solve some other problems addressed by the subsequent patches.

Currently we use this flag for the global init only, but it could also be used
by kthreads and (perhaps) by the sub-namespace inits.

signals: unify send_sigqueue/send_group_sigqueue completely

Suggested by Pavel Emelyanov.

send_sigqueue/send_group_sigqueue are only differ in how they lock ->siglock.
Unify them.  send_group_sigqueue() uses spin_lock() because it knows the task
can't exit, but in that case lock_task_sighand() can't fail and doesn't hurt.

Note that the "sig" argument is ignored, it is always equal to ->si_signo.

16 years agosignals: use __group_complete_signal() for the specific signals too

signals: use __group_complete_signal() for the specific signals too

Based on Pavel Emelyanov's suggestion.

Rename __group_complete_signal() to complete_signal() and use it to process
the specific signals too.  To do this we simply add the "int group" argument.

This allows us to greatly simply the signal-sending code and adds a useful
behaviour change.  We can avoid the unneeded wakeups for the private signals
because wants_signal() is more clever than sigismember(blocked), but more
importantly we now take into account the fatal specific signals too.

The latter allows us to kill some subtle checks in handle_stop_signal() and
makes the specific/group signal's behaviour more consistent.  For example,
currently sigtimedwait(FATAL_SIGNAL) behaves differently depending on was the
signal sent by kill() or tkill() if the signal was not blocked.

And.  This allows us to tweak/fix the behaviour when the specific signal is
sent to the dying/dead ->group_leader.

send_signal() is used either with ->pending or with ->signal->shared_pending.
Change it to take "int group" instead, this argument will be re-used later.

Initialize signal->curr_target in copy_signal().  This way ->curr_target is
never == NULL, we can kill the check in __group_complete_signal's hot path.

signals: send_sig_info: don't take tasklist_lock

The comment in send_sig_info() is wrong, tasklist_lock can't help.

The caller must ensure the task can't go away, otherwise ->sighand can be NULL
even before we take the lock.

p->sighand could be changed by exec(), but I can't imagine how it is possible
to prevent exit(), but not exec().

Since the things seem to work, I assume all callers are correct.  However,
drm_vbl_send_signals() looks broken.  block_all_signals() which is solely used
by drm is definitely broken.
