Subject: [PATCH 6/12] pid: Make session_of_pgrp use struct pid instead of pid_t.
Date: Wed, 13 Dec 2006 04:07:50 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1166008077891-git-send-email-ebiederm@xmission.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <m1y7pcoy5w.fsf@ebiederm.dsl.xmission.com>

To properly implement a pid namespace I need to deal exclusively
in terms of struct pid, because pid_t values become ambiguous.

To this end session_of_pgrp is transformed to take and return
a struct pid pointer.  To avoid the need to worry about reference
counting I now require my caller to hold the appropriate locks.
Leaving callers repsonsible for increasing the reference count
if they need access to the result outside of the locks.

Since session_of_pgrp currently only has one caller and that
caller simply uses only test the result for equality with
another process group, the locking change means I don't
actually have to acquire the tasklist_lock at all.

tiocspgrp is also modified to take and release the lock.  The logic
there is a little more complicated but nothing I won't need when I
convert pgrp of a tty to a struct pid pointer.
