Subject: [RFC][v4][PATCH 5/7]: Add target_pids parameter to copy_process()
Date: Thu, 6 Aug 2009 23:13:54 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090807061354.GE20672@us.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090807061103.GA19343@us.ibm.com>
Subject: [RFC][v4][PATCH 5/7]: Add target_pids parameter to copy_process()
Add a 'target_pids' parameter to copy_process(). The new parameter will be
used in a follow-on patch when clone_with_pids() is implemented.
