[PATCH] Fix invisible threads problem

2005-09-21T16:15:34+00:00

When the main thread of a thread group has done pthread_exit() and died,
the other threads are still happily running, but will not be visible
under /proc because their leader is no longer accessible.

This fixes the access control so that we can see the sub-threads again.

[PATCH] files: lock-free fd look-up

2005-09-09T20:57:55+00:00

With the use of RCU in files structure, the look-up of files using fds can now
be lock-free.  The lookup is protected by rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock().
This patch changes the readers to use lock-free lookup.

[PATCH] files: break up files struct

2005-09-09T20:57:55+00:00

In order for the RCU to work, the file table array, sets and their sizes must
be updated atomically.  Instead of ensuring this through too many memory
barriers, we put the arrays and their sizes in a separate structure.  This
patch takes the first step of putting the file table elements in a separate
structure fdtable that is embedded withing files_struct.  It also changes all
the users to refer to the file table using files_fdtable() macro.  Subsequent
applciation of RCU becomes easier after this.
