[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 15/19] linux-user: Use safe_syscall for kill, tki


From: Peter Maydell
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 15/19] linux-user: Use safe_syscall for kill, tkill and tgkill syscalls
Date: Fri, 27 May 2016 15:51:57 +0100

Use the safe_syscall wrapper for the kill, tkill and tgkill syscalls.
Without this, if a thread sent a SIGKILL to itself it could kill the
thread before we had a chance to process a signal that arrived just
before the SIGKILL, and that signal would get lost.

We drop all the ifdeffery for tkill and tgkill, because every guest
architecture we support implements them, and they've been in Linux
since 2003 so we can assume the host headers define the __NR_tkill
and __NR_tgkill constants.

Timothy's patchset used block_signals() for this, but I
think safe_syscall is nicer when it can be used, since
it's lower overhead and less intrusive. Also extended to
cover all the thread-killing syscalls rather than just kill.
