[patch 08/11] - fix signal->live leak in copy_process()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Oleg Nesterov <[email protected]>

exit_signal() (called from copy_process's error path) should decrement
->signal->live, otherwise forking process will miss 'group_dead' in
do_exit().
