[PATCH 3.10 138/143] kernel/fork.c:copy_process(): unify CLONE_THREAD-or-thread_group_leader code

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

 



3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 80628ca06c5d42929de6bc22c0a41589a834d151 upstream.

Cleanup and preparation for the next changes.

Move the "if (clone_flags & CLONE_THREAD)" code down under "if
(likely(p->pid))" and turn it into into the "else" branch.  This makes the
process/thread initialization more symmetrical and removes one check.
