From 5bf2fedca8f59379025b0d52f917b9ddb9bfe17e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bernd Edlinger bernd.edlinger@hotmail.de Date: Mon, 7 Jun 2021 15:54:27 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] exec: Copy oldsighand->action under spin-lock
unshare_sighand should only access oldsighand->action while holding oldsighand->siglock, to make sure that newsighand->action is in a consistent state.
