The Linux minidump writer is mishandling EINTR when waiting for a thread to stop after having attached to it #39
Description
This is something I noticed reading the code, see the loop here. We've just called ptrace(PTRACE_ATTACH, pid) on a given thread and we need to waitpid() for it. If we get an error and errno is EINTR (that is we received a signal and handled it) we're supposed to wait again, if we get any other error we should detach from the thread and return. It seems to me that we're doing the opposite (i.e. we detach and return on EINTR and try again for other values of errno).
