Merge tag 'core-process-v5.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux
Pull pidfd/waitid updates from Christian Brauner: "This contains two features and various tests. First, it adds support for waiting on process through pidfds by adding the P_PIDFD type to the waitid() syscall. This completes the basic functionality of the pidfd api (cf. [1]). In the meantime we also have a new adition to the userspace projects that make use of the pidfd api. The qt project was nice enough to send a mail pointing out that they have a pr up to switch to the pidfd api (cf. [2]). Second, this tag contains an extension to the waitid() syscall to make it possible to wait on the current process group in a race free manner (even though the actual problem is very unlikely) by specifing 0 together with the P_PGID type. This extension traces back to a discussion on the glibc development mailing list. There are also a range of tests for the features above. Additionally, the test-suite which detected the pidfd-polling race we fixed in [3] is included in this tag" [1] https://lwn.net/Articles/794707/ [2] https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtbase/+/108456 [3] commit b191d6491be6 ("pidfd: fix a poll race when setting exit_state") * tag 'core-process-v5.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux: waitid: Add support for waiting for the current process group tests: add pidfd poll tests tests: move common definitions and functions into pidfd.h pidfd: add pidfd_wait tests pidfd: add P_PIDFD to waitid()
