Subject: [PATCH 1/3] wait_task_stopped: don't use task_pid_nr_ns() lockless
Date: Fri, 16 Nov 2007 20:24:08 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071116172408.GA7293@tv-sign.ru> (raw)
wait_task_stopped(WNOWAIT) does task_pid_nr_ns() without tasklist/rcu lock,
we can read an already freed memory. Use the cached pid_t value.
