[PATCH] remove child_reaper arg from choose_new_parent()

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

 



Hi Andrew! Folks!

unless there is a masterplan behind that, the 
child_reaper argument to choose_new_parent()
is not used but shadows a global value ...

best,
Herbert

------------------

remove the gratuitous child_reaper argument
from choose_new_parent() and adjust the callers
