Tgid vs. pid

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

 



Hi,

I'm currently reading the great new paper that documents the Linux scheduler and it talks about the difference between tgid and pid task_struct. It says that the real equivalent of a Posix pid is actually the tgid. So I was wondering whether the pid's shown in ps are tgid's or pid's? I have a feeling that they are still pid's, but I am not sure. Anyone know?

Thanks,
Can Sar
