From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Wed, 10 Dec 2014 23:54:39 +0000 (-0800) Subject: usermodehelper: don't use CLONE_VFORK for ____call_usermodehelper() X-Git-Tag: omap-for-v3.19/fixes-rc1~142^2~17 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7117bc8888aff73fb081956afa501edcc85a1552;p=pandora-kernel.git usermodehelper: don't use CLONE_VFORK for ____call_usermodehelper() After "kernel/kmod: fix use-after-free of the sub_infostructure" CLONE_VFORK in __call_usermodehelper() buys nothing, we rely on on umh_complete() in ____call_usermodehelper() anyway. Remove it. This also eliminates the unnecessary sleep/wakeup in the likely case, and this allows the next change. While at it, kill the "int wait" locals in ____call_usermodehelper() and __call_usermodehelper(), they can safely use sub_info->wait.
