Hello. Quoting from linux-2.6.36-rc5/security/tomoyo/common.c static char *tomoyo_print_header(struct tomoyo_request_info *r) { struct timeval tv; const pid_t gpid = task_pid_nr(current); static const int tomoyo_buffer_len = 4096; char *buffer = kmalloc(tomoyo_buffer_len, GFP_NOFS); if (!buffer) return NULL; do_gettimeofday(&tv); snprintf(buffer, tomoyo_buffer_len - 1, "#timestamp=%lu profile=%u mode=%s (global-pid=%u)" " task={ pid=%u ppid=%u uid=%u gid=%u euid=%u" " egid=%u suid=%u sgid=%u fsuid=%u fsgid=%u }", tv.tv_sec, r->profile, tomoyo_mode[r->mode], gpid, (pid_t) sys_getpid(), (pid_t) sys_getppid(), current_uid(), current_gid(), current_euid(), current_egid(), current_suid(), current_sgid(), current_fsuid(), current_fsgid()); return buffer; } But alpha does not have sys_getppid() and sys_getpid() defined, and is causing build failure for "make allmodconfig" case. arch/alpha/kernel/entry.S defines getxpid as an assembly function. .align 4 .globl sys_getxpid .ent sys_getxpid sys_getxpid: .prologue 0 ldq $2, TI_TASK($8) /* See linux/kernel/timer.c sys_getppid for discussion about this loop. */ ldq $3, TASK_GROUP_LEADER($2) ldq $4, TASK_REAL_PARENT($3) ldl $0, TASK_TGID($2) 1: ldl $1, TASK_TGID($4) #ifdef CONFIG_SMP mov $4, $5 mb ldq $3, TASK_GROUP_LEADER($2) ldq $4, TASK_REAL_PARENT($3) cmpeq $4, $5, $5 beq $5, 1b #endif stq $1, 80($sp) ret .end sys_getxpid But I don't know how to call it from tomoyo_print_header(). How can I get PID and PPID?
