Revision eb61b5911bdc923875cde99eb25203a0e2b06d43 authored by Jamie Iles on 18 August 2017, 22:16:18 UTC, committed by Linus Torvalds on 18 August 2017, 22:32:02 UTC
When forcing a signal, SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE is removed to prevent recursive
faults, but this is undesirable when tracing.  For example, debugging an
init process (whether global or namespace), hitting a breakpoint and
SIGTRAP will force SIGTRAP and then remove SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE.
Everything continues fine, but then once debugging has finished, the
init process is left killable which is unlikely what the user expects,
resulting in either an accidentally killed init or an init that stops
reaping zombies.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
