Biederman" , Ingo Molnar , "Paul E. McKenney" , Roland McGrath , linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH 1/4] coredump: optimize ->mm users traversal Message-ID: <20060406220607.GA232@oleg> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.11 Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org zap_threads() iterates over all threads to find those ones which share current->mm. All threads in the thread group share the same ->mm, so we can skip entire thread group if it has another ->mm. This patch shifts the killing of thread group into the newly added zap_process() function. This looks as unnecessary complication, but it is used in further patches.
