The patch titled pid: remove the now unused kill_pg kill_pg_info and __kill_pg_info has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is pid-remove-the-now-unused-kill_pg-kill_pg_info-and-__kill_pg_info.patch See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: pid: remove the now unused kill_pg kill_pg_info and __kill_pg_info From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Now that I have changed all of the in-tree users remove the old version of these functions. This should make it clear to any out of tree users that they should be using kill_pgrp kill_pgrp_info or __kill_pgrp_info instead. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
