But note that there is another reason why dump_interrupted() returns true if signal_pending(), it assumes thagt __dump_emit()->__kernel_write() may fail anyway if signal_pending() is true. Say, pipe_write(), or iirc nfs, perhaps something else... That is why zap_threads() clears TIF_SIGPENDING. Perhaps it should clear TIF_NOTIFY_SIGNAL as well and we should change io-uring to not abuse the dumping threads? Or perhaps we should change __dump_emit() to clear signal_pending() and restart __kernel_write() if it fails or returns a short write. Otherwise the change above doesn't look like a full fix to me.
