From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Fri, 25 Jul 2008 08:47:40 +0000 (-0700) Subject: coredump: elf_core_dump: skip kernel threads X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=24d5288f06ed8b3a368eba967d587cdb012dfdf7;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git coredump: elf_core_dump: skip kernel threads linux_binfmt->core_dump() runs before the process does exit_aio(), this means that we can hit the kernel thread which shares the same ->mm. Afaics, nothing really bad can happen, but perhaps it makes sense to fix this minor bug. It is sad we have to iterate over all threads in system and use GFP_ATOMIC. Hopefully we can kill theses ugly do_each_thread()s, but this needs some nontrivial changes in mm_struct and do_coredump.
