Subject: [for-next][PATCH v2 2/3] tracing: Change syscall_*regfunc() to check PF_KTHREAD and use for_each_process_thread()
Date: Fri, 20 Jun 2014 06:45:20 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20140620104711.360115202@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20140620104518.722157733@goodmis.org

[-- Attachment #1: 0002-tracing-Change-syscall_-regfunc-to-check-PF_KTHREAD-.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2117 bytes --]

From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>

1. Remove _irqsafe from syscall_regfunc/syscall_unregfunc,
   read_lock(tasklist) doesn't need to disable irqs.

2. Change this code to avoid the deprecated do_each_thread()
   and use for_each_process_thread() (stolen from the patch
   from Frederic).

3. Change syscall_regfunc() to check PF_KTHREAD to skip
   the kernel threads, ->mm != NULL is the common mistake.

   Note: probably this check should be simply removed, needs
   another patch.
