Subject: [PATCH 1/3] pidns: remove now unused kill_proc function
Date: Mon, 09 Jun 2008 18:41:29 +0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <484D4119.1050206@openvz.org> (raw)
This function operated on a pid_t to kill a task, which is
no longer valid in a containerized system.
It has finally lost all its users and we can safely remove
it from the tree.
