From 7a5e873f096e04e6d8719e4ecb7b70d2decca503 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Wed, 30 Apr 2008 00:53:04 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] signals: de_thread: simplify the ->child_reaper switching Now that we rely on SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE flag, de_thread() doesn't need the nasty hack to kill the old ->child_reaper during the mt-exec. This also means we can avoid taking tasklist_lock around zap_other_threads().
