Subject: [PATCH tip/core/urgent 3/3] sched: protect __sched_setscheduler() access to cgroups
Date: Thu, 22 Apr 2010 12:54:07 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1271966047-9701-3-git-send-email-paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100422195345.GA9639@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

A given task's cgroups structures must remain while that task is running
due to reference counting, so this is presumably a false positive.
Updated to reflect feedback from Tetsuo Handa.
