Can't understand this patch. First of all, it looks wrong. Looks like
we never set .si_pid != 0 when the signal is set by sys_kill() ?
But more importantly, unless I missed something, this patch is unnecessary
complication.
We call masquerade_si_pid() only when from_ancestor_ns == T, this is correct.
But this means that (!is_si_special(info) && SI_FROMUSER(info)) == T, why
do we re-check in masquerade_si_pid() ?
And why can't we just do
default:
copy_siginfo(&q->info, info);
if (from_ancestor_ns)
info->si_pid = 0;
? Why should we check SI_USER and change sys_kill() ?
see also the comment for the next 7/7 patch.
