> Fairly straightforward, no? So, I've finished the series today. It took a while because I wanted to hammer on it with stress-ng --{procfs,pidfd}, run LTP, and then do some other tests. It survives everything now for over 24h. There were a few bugs as expected in the first draft. @Linus, if you're up for it, please take a look at: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs.git vfs.pidfd The topmost 6 commits contain everything we've had on here. I renamed pidfdfs to pidfs and all helpers completely mechanically. The rest is unchanged. At the end we have the conversion fo path_from_stashed(). And the topmost commit implements your suggestion. Let me know if your ACK still stands.
