From 8677347378044ab564470bced2275520efb3670d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Wed, 22 Jun 2011 23:09:09 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] make do_notify_parent() __must_check, update the callers Change other callers of do_notify_parent() to check the value it returns, this makes the subsequent task_detached() unnecessary. Mark do_notify_parent() as __must_check. Use thread_group_leader() instead of !task_detached() to check if we need to notify the real parent in wait_task_zombie(). Remove the stale comment in release_task(). "just for sanity" is no longer true, we have to set EXIT_DEAD to avoid the races with do_wait().
