[PATCH 0/7] don't abuse task_struct.group_leader

[PATCH 0/7] don't abuse task_struct.group_leader

[Oleg Nesterov]

Hello.

Untested but hopefully trivial, please review.

The patches do not depend on each other, this series just removes
the usage of ->group_leader when it is "obviously unnecessary".

I am going to move ->group_leader from task_struct to signal_struct
or at least add the new task_group_leader() helper. So I will send
more tree-wide changes on top of this series.

If this series passes the review, can it be routed via mm tree?

Oleg.

[PATCH 1/7] android/binder: don't abuse current->group_leader

[Oleg Nesterov]

Cleanup and preparation to simplify the next changes.

- Use current->tgid instead of current->group_leader->pid

- Use the value returned by get_task_struct() to initialize proc->tsk

[PATCH 2/7] android/binder: use same_thread_group(proc->tsk, current) in binder_mmap()

With or without this change the checked condition can be falsely true

[PATCH 4/7] drm/amd: kill the outdated "Only the pthreads threading model is supported" checks

[Oleg Nesterov]

Nowaday task->group_leader->mm != task->mm is only possible if
a) task is not a group leader and b) task->group_leader->mm == NULL
because task->group_leader has already exited using sys_exit().

I don't think that drm/amd tries to detect/nack this case.

Just for my understanding: That is because CLONE_THREAD can only be specified together with CLONE_SIGHAND and CLONE_VM, correct?

Seems to make sense of hand.

Should we pick that one up or do you want to merge it upstream somehow?

Yes, copy copy_process() does

	if ((clone_flags & CLONE_THREAD) && !(clone_flags & CLONE_SIGHAND))
		return ERR_PTR(-EINVAL);

	if ((clone_flags & CLONE_SIGHAND) && !(clone_flags & CLONE_VM))

If you don't object, I would like to route this series via -mm tree.

See 0/7, I am going to send more (simple) tree-wide changes which depend
