In case of a kernel-side exit and a valid thread ID, no signal needs to be sent and cancellation does not have an effect, so just return 0. sysdeps/pthread/tst-kill4.c triggers undefined behavior and is removed with this commit. --- nptl/pthread_cancel.c | 9 ++- nptl/pthread_kill.c | 7 +- sysdeps/pthread/Makefile | 5 +- sysdeps/pthread/tst-kill4.c | 89 --------------------- sysdeps/pthread/tst-pthread_cancel-exited.c | 45 +++++++++++ sysdeps/pthread/tst-pthread_kill-exited.c | 46 +++++++++++ 6 files changed, 106 insertions(+), 95 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 sysdeps/pthread/tst-kill4.c create mode 100644 sysdeps/pthread/tst-pthread_cancel-exited.c create mode 100644 sysdeps/pthread/tst-pthread_kill-exited.c diff --git a/nptl/pthread_cancel.c b/nptl/pthread_cancel.c index 2bb523c0ec..a8aa3b3d15 100644 --- a/nptl/pthread_cancel.c +++ b/nptl/pthread_cancel.c @@ -61,10 +61,11 @@ __pthread_cancel (pthread_t th) { volatile struct pthread *pd = (volatile struct pthread *) th; - /* Make sure the descriptor is valid. */ - if (INVALID_TD_P (pd)) - /* Not a valid thread handle. */ - return ESRCH; + if (pd->tid == 0) + /* The thread has already exited on the kernel side.
