Subject: [PATCH -mm 1/2] do_wait-wakeup-optimization: fix child_wait_callback()->eligible_child() usage
Date: Tue, 1 Sep 2009 14:23:25 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090901122325.GB20989@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090901122240.GA20989@redhat.com>

(on top of do_wait-wakeup-optimization-child_wait_callback-check-__wnothread-case.patch,
 fixes do_wait-wakeup-optimization-change-__wake_up_parent-to-use-filtered-wakeup.patch)

child_wait_callback()->eligible_child() is not right, we can miss the
wakeup if the task was detached before __wake_up_parent() and the caller
of do_wait() didn't use __WALL.

Move ->wo_pid checks from eligible_child() to the new helper, eligible_pid(),
and change child_wait_callback() to use it instead of eligible_child().

Note: actually I think it would be better to fix the __WCLONE check in
eligible_child(), it doesn't look exactly right. But it is not clear what
is the supposed behaviour, and any change is user-visible.
