      restore: Fix deadlock when helper's child dies · 204c1ef9
      Dmitry Safonov authored
      Since commit ced9c529 ("restore: fix race with helpers' kids dying
      too early"), we block SIGCHLD in helper tasks before CR_STATE_RESTORE.
      This way we avoided default criu sighandler as it doesn't expect that
      childs may die.
      
      This is very racy as we wait on futex for another stage to be started,
      but the next stage may start only when all the tasks complete previous
      stage. If some children of helper dies, the helper may already have
      blocked SIGCHLD and have started sleeping on the futex. Then the next
      stage never comes and no one reads a pending SIGCHLD for helper.
      
      A customer met this situation on the node, where the following
      (non-related) problem has occured:
      Unable to send a fin packet: libnet_write_raw_ipv6(): -1 bytes written (Network is unreachable)
      Then child criu of the helper has exited with error-code and the
      lockup has happened.
      
      While we could fix it by aborting futex in the end of
      restore_task_with_children() for each (non-root also) tasks,
      that would be not completely correct:
      1. All futex-waiting tasks will wake up after that and they
         may not expect that some tasks are on the previous stage,
         so they will spam into logs with unrelated errors and may
         also die painfully.
      2. Child may die and miss aborting of the futex due to:
         o segfault
         o OOM killer
         o User-sended SIGKILL
         o Other error-path we forgot to cover with abort futex
      
      To fix this deadlock in TASK_HELPER, as suggested-by Kirill,
      let's check if there are children deaths expected - if there
      isn't any, don't block SIGCHLD, otherwise wait() and check if
      death was on expected stage of restore (not CR_STATE_RESTORE).
