From d92656633b8352c6d4b14afcb7beb154d76e7aa6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Wed, 17 Jun 2009 16:27:35 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] ptrace: do_notify_parent_cldstop: fix the wrong ->nsproxy usage If the non-traced sub-thread calls do_notify_parent_cldstop(), we send the notification to group_leader->real_parent and we report group_leader's pid. But, if group_leader is traced we use the wrong ->parent->nsproxy->pid_ns, the tracer and parent can live in different namespaces. Change the code to use "parent" instead of tsk->parent.
