+From 8af8456004edbab71f8903a60a3cae442cf6fe69 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

+Subject: [PATCH] nptl: pthread_kill, pthread_cancel should not fail after exit
+ (bug 19193)
+
+This closes one remaining race condition related to bug 12889: if
+the thread already exited on the kernel side, returning ESRCH
+is not correct because that error is reserved for the thread IDs
+(pthread_t values) whose lifetime has ended. In case of a
+kernel-side exit and a valid thread ID, no signal needs to be sent
+and cancellation does not have an effect, so just return 0.
+
+sysdeps/pthread/tst-kill4.c triggers undefined behavior and is
+removed with this commit.
