[PATCH] netns: Fix get_net_ns_by_pid

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The pid namespace patches changed the semantics of
find_task_by_pid without breaking the compile resulting
in get_net_ns_by_pid doing the wrong thing.

So switch to using the intended find_task_by_vpid.

Combined with Denis' earlier patch to make netlink traffic
fully synchronous the inadvertent race I introduced with
accessing current is actually removed.
