Subject: proc.5: Update /proc/[pid]/task/[tid]/ example file
Date: Fri, 4 Feb 2022 23:50:12 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <8655db93-8700-686e-cf03-68738c3f66f4@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp> (raw)
Since all of the /proc/[pid]/task/[tid]/cwd files are allowed to have
different values (so that threads can use relative pathnames), using
cwd file as an example of "have the same value" is not appropriate.
Since threads in a multithreaded process are created using CLONE_VM
flag, all of the /proc/[pid]/task/[tid]/maps files must have the same
value. Therefore, let's use maps file as an example.

Should I use [PATCH] and S-o-b for changes not in kernel tree?
I didn't use them in order not to be caught by testing bot process.
