pids: sys_getsid: fix unsafe *pid usage, fix possible 0 instead of -ESRCH
1. sys_getsid() needs rcu_read_lock() to derive the session _nr, even if
the task is current, otherwise we can race with another thread which
does sys_setsid().
2. The task can exit between find_task_by_vpid() and task_session_vnr(),
in that unlikely case sys_getsid() returns 0 instead of -ESRCH.

pids: introduce change_pid() helper
Based on Eric W. Biederman's idea.
Without tasklist_lock held task_session()/task_pgrp() can return NULL if the
caller races with setprgp()/setsid() which does detach_pid() + attach_pid().
This can happen even if task == current.
Intoduce the new helper, change_pid(), which should be used instead. This way
the caller always sees the special pid != NULL, either old or new.
Also change the prototype of attach_pid(), it always returns 0 and nobody
check the returned value.

pids: de_thread: don't clear session/pgrp pids for the old leader
Based on Eric W. Biederman's idea.
Unless task == current, without tasklist_lock held task_session()/task_pgrp()
can return NULL if the caller races with de_thread() which switches the group
leader.
Change transfer_pid() to not clear old->pids[type].pid for the old leader.
This means that its .pid can point to "nowhere", but this is already true for
sub-threads, and the old leader is not group_leader() any longer. IOW, with
or without this change we can't trust task's special pids unless it is the
group leader.
With this change the following code
rcu_read_lock();
task = find_task_by_xxx();
do_something(task_pgrp(task), task_session(task));
rcu_read_unlock();
can't race with exec and hit the NULL pid.

Deprecate find_task_by_pid()
There are some places that are known to operate on tasks'
global pids only:
* the rest_init() call (called on boot)
* the kgdb's getthread
* the create_kthread() (since the kthread is run in init ns)
So use the find_task_by_pid_ns(..., &init_pid_ns) there
and schedule the find_task_by_pid for removal.

Use find_task_by_vpid in taskstats
The pid to lookup a task by is passed inside taskstats code via genetlink

Since netlink packets are now processed in the context of the sending task,
this is correct to lookup the task with find_task_by_vpid() here.
Besides, I fix the call to fill_pid() from taskstats_exit(), since the
tsk->pid is not required in fill_pid() in this case, and the pid field on

vt_ioctl: Prepare for BKL push down
This one could do with some eyeballs on it. In theory it simply wraps the
ioctl handler in lock/unlock_kernel ready for the lock/unlocks to be pushed
into specific switch values. To do that means changing the code to return via
a common exit path not all over the place as it does now, hence the big diff

viocons: BKL locking
For some weird reason I can't ascertain (translation "I think its
broken") the viocons driver calls directly into the n_tty ldisc code even
if another ldisc is in use. It'll probably break if you do that but I'm
just fixing the locking and adding a comment that its horked.

ptrace: permit ptracing of /sbin/init
Afaics, currently there are no kernel problems with ptracing init, it can't
lose SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE flag and be killed/stopped by accident.
The ability to strace/debug init can be very useful if you try to figure out
why it does not work as expected.
However, admin should know what he does, "gdb /sbin/init 1" stops init, it
can't reap orphaned zombies or take care of /etc/inittab until continued. It
is even possible to crash init (and thus the whole system) if you wish,
ptracer has full control.

Nobody can block/ignore SIGSTOP, no need to use force_sig_specific() in

With this patch stracing of /sbin/init doesn't clear its SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE,
