Subject: [PATCH 5/7] pid: Implement pid_nr
Date: Tue, 15 Aug 2006 12:23:10 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1155666193751-git-send-email-ebiederm@xmission.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <m1k65997xk.fsf@ebiederm.dsl.xmission.com>

As we stop storing pid_t's and move to storing struct pid *.  We
need a way to get the pid_t from the struct pid to report to user
space what we have stored.

Having a clean well defined way to do this is especially important
as we move to multiple pid spaces as may need to report a different
value to the caller depending on which pid space the caller is in.
