However if psmisc is +built on a Linux >= 5.1 system but run on a < 5.1 Linux +system the system call fails and killall doesn't work. + +The fix, as proposed by Peter T. Breuer, is to try +pidfd_send_signal() and if the return value is < 0 and +errno is ENOSYS then we know at runtime the system call +failed and we fall through to trusty old kill(). + +Note, this means that killall on systems below 5.1 still +have the race PID condition that the pidfd calls fix. + +References: + https://bugs.debian.org/1015228 +--- a/src/killall.c ++++ b/src/killall.c +@@ -326,7 +326,12 @@ my_send_signal( + { + #ifdef __NR_pidfd_send_signal + if (pid > 0) /* Not PGID */ +- return syscall(__NR_pidfd_send_signal, pidfd, sig, NULL, 0); ++ { ++ int ret = syscall(__NR_pidfd_send_signal, pidfd, sig, NULL, 0); ++ if (ret >= 0 || errno != ENOSYS) ++ return ret; ++ // fall through if no such syscall ++ } + #endif + return kill(pid, sig); + } +GitLab -- cgit v1.2.3
