OK, thanks. Please find the same patch + "kill one-liner reparent_thread()" below. [PATCH] handle the multi-threaded init's exit() properly With or without this patch, multi-threaded init's are not fully supported, but do_exit() is completely wrong. This becomes a real problem when we support pid namespaces. 1. do_exit() panics when the main thread of /sbin/init exits. It should not until the whole thread group exits. Move the code below, under the "if (group_dead)" check. Note: this means that forget_original_parent() can use an already dead child_reaper()'s task_struct. This is OK for /sbin/init because - do_wait() from alive sub-thread still can reap a zombie, we iterate over all sub-thread's ->children lists - do_notify_parent() will wakeup some alive sub-thread because it sends the group-wide signal However, we should remove choose_new_parent()->BUG_ON(reaper->exit_state) for this. 2. We are playing games with ->nsproxy->pid_ns. This code is bogus today, and it has to be changed anyway when we really support pid namespaces, just remove it.
