From 314a8ad0f18ac37887896b288939acd8cb17e208 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:45:27 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] pidns: fix free_pid() to handle the first fork failure "case 0" in free_pid() assumes that disable_pid_allocation() should clear PIDNS_HASH_ADDING before the last pid goes away. However this doesn't happen if the first fork() fails to create the child reaper which should call disable_pid_allocation(). Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov Reviewed-by: "Eric W.
