Subject: [glibc] Linux: Remove exit system call from _exit
Date: Thu,  4 Aug 2022 04:19:26 +0000 (GMT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220804041926.D3C6E3857432@sourceware.org> (raw)

commit 8fabe0e632bd441c760f878d1022c378f04f8497
Author: Florian Weimer <fweimer@redhat.com>
Date:   Thu Aug 4 06:17:50 2022 +0200

    Linux: Remove exit system call from _exit
    
    exit only terminates the current thread, not the whole process, so it
    is the wrong fallback system call in this context.  All supported
    Linux versions implement the exit_group system call anyway.
