sched,signal,ptrace: Rework TASK_TRACED, TASK_STOPPED state
Currently ptrace_stop() / do_signal_stop() rely on the special states TASK_TRACED and TASK_STOPPED resp. to keep unique state. That is, this state exists only in task->__state and nowhere else. There's two spots of bother with this: - PREEMPT_RT has task->saved_state which complicates matters, meaning task_is_{traced,stopped}() needs to check an additional variable. - An alternative freezer implementation that itself relies on a special TASK state would loose TASK_TRACED/TASK_STOPPED and will result in misbehaviour. As such, add additional state to task->jobctl to track this state outside of task->__state. NOTE: this doesn't actually fix anything yet, just adds extra state. --EWB * didn't add a unnecessary newline in signal.h * Update t->jobctl in signal_wake_up and ptrace_signal_wake_up instead of in signal_wake_up_state. This prevents the clearing of TASK_STOPPED and TASK_TRACED from getting lost. * Added warnings if JOBCTL_STOPPED or JOBCTL_TRACED are not cleared Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220421150654.757693825@infradead.org Tested-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Reviewed-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220505182645.497868-12-ebiederm@xmission.com Signed-off-by: Eric W.
