The patch titled Subject: kernel/fork.c: put set_max_threads()/task_struct_whitelist() in __init section has been added to the -mm mm-unstable branch. Its filename is kernel-forkc-put-set_max_threads-task_struct_whitelist-in-__init-section.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/kernel-forkc-put-set_max_threads-task_struct_whitelist-in-__init-section.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-unstable branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next via the mm-everything branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm and is updated there every 2-3 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: Wei Yang <richard.weiyang@xxxxxxxxx> Subject: kernel/fork.c: put set_max_threads()/task_struct_whitelist() in __init section Date: Mon, 1 Jul 2024 01:34:10 +0000 The functions set_max_threads() and task_struct_whitelist() are only used by fork_init() during bootup. Let's add __init tag to them.
