From: Micha Kalfon Date: Tue, 13 Jan 2015 10:12:57 +0000 (+0200) Subject: prctl: make PR_SET_TIMERSLACK_PID pid namespace aware X-Git-Tag: firefly_0821_release~4090^2~102 X-Git-Url: http://demsky.eecs.uci.edu/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2e09fe094acd1fb26b9ce242df045ceef042a2a0;p=firefly-linux-kernel-4.4.55.git prctl: make PR_SET_TIMERSLACK_PID pid namespace aware Make PR_SET_TIMERSLACK_PID consider pid namespace and resolve the target pid in the caller's namespace. Otherwise, calls from pid namespace other than init would fail or affect the wrong task.
