+Subject: [PATCH] cve-2017-17052: Avoid unsafe exits in threads
+
+According to manpage exit(3) calling exit is not thread-safe.
+And with glibc 2.28 (and probably also with glibc >=2.27) sometimes
+child processes created in fork_thread can get stuck on process exit in
+glibc's __run_exit_handlers trying to acquire some lock which was in
+locked state while the fork was created. This can happen when exit is
+called in mmap_thread concurrently to the fork.
+While the main process will still return with PASSED some of its
+children are left behind.
+
+Comparing the source code with the original program as described in the
+commit 2b7e8665b4ff51c034c55df3cff76518d1a9ee3a of linux kernel >=4.13
+the exits in mmap_thread and fork_thread should not be necessary to
+trigger the original bug.
+
+Therefore those exit calls are removed. The mmap_thread and fork_thread
+should still exit when their corresponding main thread in do_test_fork
+calls exit_group. The remaining exit in do_test_fork will be called in
+the main thread without any concurrent thread in the same process.
