Subject: [PATCH] redo locking of tty->pgrp
Date: Wed, 20 Feb 2008 20:57:37 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080220205737.1bdec9d6@core> (raw)

Historically tty->pgrp and friends were pid_t and the code "knew" they
were safe. The change to pid structs opened up a few races and the
removal of the BKL in places made them quite hittable. We put tty->pgrp
under the ctrl_lock for the tty.
