From 526c3cf11ee9367344b6b15d669e4c3cb461a2be Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Florian Weimer Date: Mon, 13 Sep 2021 11:06:08 +0200 Subject: nptl: Fix race between pthread_kill and thread exit (bug 12889) A new thread exit lock and flag are introduced. They are used to detect that the thread is about to exit or has exited in __pthread_kill_internal, and the signal is not sent in this case. The test sysdeps/pthread/tst-pthread_cancel-select-loop.c is derived from a downstream test originally written by Marek Polacek.
