Also, io_uring cancellation code had to be modified as it could set the TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL bit. Few notes about this patchset: 1. My coredump.c proposal puts the io_uring_task_cancel call further down the do_coredump function over what Jens did propose. Considering that this function call can be relatively expensive, I believe that postponing it as much as possible is the way to go. I did place it before coredump_wait which clears signal bits so that seems to be an appropriate location but the logic could possibly be pushed even more with possibly no harm. 2. The current patch proposal only address specifically the issue caused by io_uring. It could reoccur as soon as something else flips the TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL bit. Therefore, another solution would simply be to modify __dump_emit to make it resilient to TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL as Eric W. Biederman originally suggested. or maybe do both... So making __dump_emit more robust to the TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL situation might be something interesting to investigate if it would be a good idea to do on top or in replacement to this patchset. Lastly, Jens did already submit a patch to solve the same problem: https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/8/17/1156 If his patch ends being a superior solution to the problem, the first 2 patches of this set are still relevant.
