Subject: [PATCH] cgroups: add lock for child->cgroups in cgroup_post_fork()
Date: Fri, 21 Nov 2008 16:49:16 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4926760C.3040005@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)
when cgroup_post_fork() called, child is seen by find_task_by_vpid(),
so child->cgroups maybe be changed, It'll incorrect.
child->cgroups<old>'s refcnt is decreased
child->cgroups<new>'s refcnt is increased
but child->cg_list is added to child->cgroups<old>'s list.
