Subject: [PATCH] Fix the sys_setpgrp() to work between namespaces
Date: Fri, 24 Aug 2007 12:47:31 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <46CE9B23.9000500@openvz.org> (raw)

The check if (task_pgrp_nr(p) != pgid) is almost always true,
because pgid is a "virtual" pid and it is most often much 
smaller than the "real" pgrp id of any task (because pids are 
generated sequentially most of the time). This leads to the 
task's pgrp  is  always reset, even if it is not needed.
