[PATCH 4/7] Freezer: Take kernel_execve into consideration

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

 



From: Rafael J. Wysocki <[email protected]>

Kernel threads can become userland processes by calling kernel_execve().  In
particular, this may happen right after
try_to_freeze_tasks(FREEZER_USER_SPACE) has returned, so try_to_freeze_tasks()
needs to take userspace processes into consideration even if it is called with
FREEZER_KERNEL_THREADS.
