Subject: handle the multi-threaded init's exit() properly
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.24-rc1~716
X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=84eb646b6eabcd82ec563f30d2d9d40c2054a9c9;p=pandora-kernel.git

handle the multi-threaded init's exit() properly

With or without this patch, multi-threaded init's are not fully supported,
but do_exit() is completely wrong.  This becomes a real problem when we
support pid namespaces.

1. do_exit() panics when the main thread of /sbin/init exits. It should not
   until the whole thread group exits. Move the code below, under the
   "if (group_dead)" check.

   Note: this means that forget_original_parent() can use an already dead
   child_reaper()'s task_struct. This is OK for /sbin/init because

   	- do_wait() from alive sub-thread still can reap a zombie, we iterate
   	  over all sub-thread's ->children lists

   	- do_notify_parent() will wakeup some alive sub-thread because it sends
   	  the group-wide signal

   However, we should remove choose_new_parent()->BUG_ON(reaper->exit_state)
   for this.

2. We are playing games with ->nsproxy->pid_ns. This code is bogus today, and
   it has to be changed anyway when we really support pid namespaces, just
   remove it.
