I meant struct task_struct *next_task_lock_mm(struct task_struct *p) { struct task_struct *t; if (p) { task_unlock(p); p = p->group_leader; } else { p = &init_task; } while ((p = next_task(p)) != &init_task) { if (p->flags & PF_KTHREAD) continue; t = find_lock_task_mm(p); if (t) return t; } return NULL; } #define for_each_task_lock_mm(p) for (p = NULL; (p = next_task_lock_mm(p)); ) Oleg. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
