From 80fe728d593e3a048a56610de932919f7d6d968a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Wed, 30 Apr 2008 00:53:05 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] signals: allow the kernel to actually kill /sbin/init Currently the buggy /sbin/init hangs if SIGSEGV/etc happens. The kernel sends the signal, init dequeues it and ignores, returns from the exception, repeats the faulting instruction, and so on forever. Imho, such a behaviour is not good. I think that the explicit loud death of the buggy /sbin/init is better than the silent hang. Change force_sig_info() to clear SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE when the task should be really killed.
