• 41487c65b   [PATCH] pid: replace do/while_each_task_pid with do/while_each_pid_task ... Browse Code »

  There isn't any real advantage to this change except that it allows the old
  functions to be removed. Which is easier on maintenance and puts the code in
  a more uniform style.

• f400e198b   [PATCH] pidspace: is_init() ... Browse Code »

  This is an updated version of Eric Biederman's is_init() patch.
  (http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/2/6/280). It applies cleanly to 2.6.18-rc3 and
  replaces a few more instances of ->pid == 1 with is_init().

  Further, is_init() checks pid and thus removes dependency on Eric's other
  patches for now.

  Eric's original description:

  There are a lot of places in the kernel where we test for init
  because we give it special properties. Most significantly init
  must not die. This results in code all over the kernel test
  ->pid == 1.

  Introduce is_init to capture this case.

  With multiple pid spaces for all of the cases affected we are
  looking for only the first process on the system, not some other
  process that has pid == 1.

• 36c8b5868   [PATCH] sched: cleanup, remove task_t, convert to struct task_struct ... Browse Code »

  cleanup: remove task_t and convert all the uses to struct task_struct. I
  introduced it for the scheduler anno and it was a mistake.

  Conversion was mostly scripted, the result was reviewed and all
  secondary whitespace and style impact (if any) was fixed up by hand.

  Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
  even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
  archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
  3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
  git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
  infrastructure for it.

  Let it rip!
