Subject: [PATCH ? 2/2] setpgid: should work for sub-threads
Date: Sun, 11 Dec 2005 20:22:39 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <439C605F.BA7C1D5B@tv-sign.ru> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <200512110523.jBB5NVEr002551@shell0.pdx.osdl.net>

setpgid(0, pgid) or setpgid(forked_child_pid, pgid) does not work
unless the calling process is a thread_group_leader().

'man setpgid' does not tell anything about that, so I consider
this behaviour is a bug.
