From d12619b5ff5664623524aef796514d1946ea3b4a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Fri, 8 Feb 2008 04:19:12 -0800 Subject: fix group stop with exit race do_signal_stop() counts all sub-thread and sets ->group_stop_count accordingly. Every thread should decrement ->group_stop_count and stop, the last one should notify the parent. However a sub-thread can exit before it notices the signal_pending(), or it may be somewhere in do_exit() already. In that case the group stop never finishes properly. Note: this is a minimal fix, we can add some optimizations later. Say we can return quickly if thread_group_empty(). Also, we can move some signal related code from exit_notify() to exit_signals().
