[PATCH v3] pids: introduce find_get_task_by_vpid helper

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

 



There are several functions that do find_task_by_vpid() followed by
get_task_struct(). We can use a helper function instead.

v3: update arch/ia64/kernel/perfmon.c and security/yama/yama_lsm.c that
were missing in the previous versions
v2: remove  futex_find_get_task() and ptrace_get_task_struct() as Oleg
suggested
