Subject: [RFC][v6][PATCH 6/9]: Add target_pids parameter to copy_process()
Date: Wed, 9 Sep 2009 23:11:43 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090910061143.GE25883@us.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20090910060627.GA24343@us.ibm.com>



Subject: [RFC][v6][PATCH 6/9]: 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.
