Subject: [PATCH] Linux: Remove exit system call from _exit
Date: Wed, 03 Aug 2022 17:53:04 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87o7x1b9y7.fsf@oldenburg.str.redhat.com> (raw)
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.
