17 * What is struct pid?
18 *
19 * A struct pid is the kernel's internal notion of a process identifier.
20 * It refers to individual tasks, process groups, and sessions. While
21 * there are processes attached to it the struct pid lives in a hash
22 * table, so it and then the processes that it refers to can be found
23 * quickly from the numeric pid value. The attached processes may be
24 * quickly accessed by following pointers from struct pid.
25 *
25985edc 26 * Storing pid_t values in the kernel and referring to them later has a
92476d7f
EB
27 * problem. The process originally with that pid may have exited and the
28 * pid allocator wrapped, and another process could have come along
29 * and been assigned that pid.
30 *
31 * Referring to user space processes by holding a reference to struct
32 * task_struct has a problem. When the user space process exits
33 * the now useless task_struct is still kept. A task_struct plus a
34 * stack consumes around 10K of low kernel memory. More precisely
35 * this is THREAD_SIZE + sizeof(struct task_struct). By comparison
36 * a struct pid is about 64 bytes.
37 *
38 * Holding a reference to struct pid solves both of these problems.
39 * It is small so holding a reference does not consume a lot of
84d73786
SB
40 * resources, and since a new struct pid is allocated when the numeric pid
41 * value is reused (when pids wrap around) we don't mistakenly refer to new
42 * processes.
