[PATCH] procfs: Fix listing of /proc/NOT_A_TGID/task

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I think this is 2.6.20 material, if it gets appropriately reviewed ;-)

Thanks.

Listing /proc/PID/task were PID is not a TGID
should not result in duplicated entries.

[g ~]$ pidof thunderbird-bin
2751
[g ~]$ ls /proc/2751/task
2751  2770  2771  2824  2826  2834  2835  2851  2853
[g ~]$ ls /proc/2770/task
2751  2770  2771  2824  2826  2834  2835  2851  2853
2770  2771  2824  2826  2834  2835  2851  2853
[g ~]$
