+Subject: [PATCH] misc/fsck.c: Processes may kill other processes.
+
+I find a error in misc/fsck.c, if run the fsck -N command, processes
+don't execute, just show what would be done. However, the pid whose
+value is -1 is added to the instance_list list in the execute
+function,if the kill_all function is called later, kill(-1, signum)
+is executed, Signals are sent to all processes except the number one
+process and itself. Other processes will be killed if they use the
+default signal processing function.
