Subject: [PATCH rc1-mm 2/3] coredump: shutdown current process first
Date: Sun, 9 Apr 2006 04:11:27 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060409001127.GA101@oleg> (raw)

This patch optimize zap_threads() for the case when there are
no ->mm users except the current's thread group. In that case
we can avoid 'for_each_process()' loop.

It also adds a useful invariant: SIGNAL_GROUP_EXIT (if checked
under ->siglock) always implies that all threads (except may be
current) have pending SIGKILL.
