Subject: tty: Fix multiple races when setting the controlling terminal
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2c411c11020ff356748268ca9cae4c1b4c410f00;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

tty: Fix multiple races when setting the controlling terminal

Claim a read lock on the tasklist_lock while setting the controlling
terminal for the session leader. This fixes multiple races:
1. task_pgrp() and task_session() cannot be safely dereferenced, such
   as passing to get_pid(), without holding either rcu_read_lock() or
   tasklist_lock
2. setsid() unwisely allows any thread in the thread group to
   make the thread group leader the session leader; this makes the
   unlocked reads of ->signal->leader and signal->tty potentially
   unordered, stale or even have spurious values.
