From 3b1253880b7a9e6db54b943b2d40bcf2202f58ab Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Al Viro Date: Tue, 22 Apr 2008 05:31:30 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] sanitize unshare_files/reset_files_struct * let unshare_files() give caller the displaced files_struct * don't bother with grabbing reference only to drop it in the caller if it hadn't been shared in the first place * in that form unshare_files() is trivially implemented via unshare_fd(), so we eliminate the duplicate logics in fork.c * reset_files_struct() is not just only called for current; it will break the system if somebody ever calls it for anything else (we can't modify ->files of somebody else). Lose the task_struct * argument.
