[C/R v20][PATCH 32/96] c/r: support for zombie processes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



During checkpoint, a zombie processes need only save p->comm,
p->state, p->exit_state, and p->exit_code.

During restart, zombie processes are created like all other
processes. They validate the saved exit_code restore p->comm
and p->exit_code. Then they call do_exit() instead of waking
up the next task in line.

But before, they place the @ctx in p->checkpoint_ctx, so that
only at exit time they will wake up the next task in line,
and drop the reference to the @ctx.

This provides the guarantee that when the coordinator's wait
completes, all normal tasks completed their restart, and all
zombie tasks are already zombified (as opposed to perhap only
becoming a zombie).

Changelog[v19-rc1]:
  - Simplify logic of tracking restarting tasks
Changelog[v18]:
  - Fix leak of ckpt_ctx when restoring zombie tasks
  - Add a few more ckpt_write_err()s
Changelog[v17]:
  - Validate t->exit_signal for both threads and leader
  - Skip zombies in most of may_checkpoint_task()
  - Save/restore t->pdeath_signal
  - Validate ->exit_signal and ->pdeath_signal
