Right, allowing to ass NULL might make sense. I had:
/**
* sys_process_signal - send a signal to a process trough a process file descriptor
* @fd: the file descriptor of the process
* @sig: signal to be sent
* @info: the signal info
* @flags: future flags to be passed
*/
SYSCALL_DEFINE4(procfd_kill, int, fd, int, sig, siginfo_t __user *, info, int, flags)
{
int ret;
struct pid *pid;
kernel_siginfo_t kinfo;
struct fd f;
/* Do not allow users to pass garbage. */
if (flags)
return -EINVAL;
ret = __copy_siginfo_from_user(sig, &kinfo, info);
if (unlikely(ret))
return ret;
/* For now, enforce that caller's creds are used. */
kinfo.si_pid = task_tgid_vnr(current);
kinfo.si_uid = from_kuid_munged(current_user_ns(), current_uid());
f = fdget_raw(fd);
if (!f.file)
return -EBADF;
ret = -EINVAL;
/* Is this a process file descriptor? */
if (!proc_is_procfd(f.file) || !d_is_dir(f.file->f_path.dentry))
goto err;
pid = f.file->private_data;
if (!pid)
goto err;
ret = -EPERM;
/*
* Not even root can pretend to send signals from the kernel.
* Nor can they impersonate a kill()/tgkill(), which adds source info.
*/
if ((kinfo.si_code >= 0 || kinfo.si_code == SI_TKILL) &&
(task_pid(current) != pid))
goto err;
ret = kill_pid_info(sig, &kinfo, pid);
err:
fdput(f);
return ret;
}
