coredump: set ->group_exit_code for other CLONE_VM tasks too
User visible change.
do_coredump() kills all threads which share the same ->mm but only the
coredumping process gets the proper exit_code. Other tasks which share
the same ->mm die "silently" and return status == 0 to parent.
This is historical behaviour, not actually a bug. But I think Frank
Heckenbach rightly dislikes the current behaviour. Simple test-case:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <signal.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
int main(void)
{
int stat;
if (!fork()) {
if (!vfork())
kill(getpid(), SIGQUIT);
}
wait(&stat);
printf("stat=%x\n", stat);
return 0;
}
Before this patch it prints "stat=0" despite the fact the child was killed
by SIGQUIT. After this patch the output is "stat=3" which obviously makes
more sense.
Even with this patch, only the task which originates the coredumping gets
"|= 0x80" if the core was actually dumped, but at least the coredumping
signal is visible to do_wait/etc.
