Hello, I've been looking through switch_exec_pids() function and found that it changes thread group leader PID/TGID. Is it really a good idea to change pid of the process during it's lifetime? I could understand if it was happenning in the context of that process, but pid changes everytime a thread calls do_execve(). As far as I can see, leader doesn't have to do any of detach_pid()'s. Instead thread should change it's PID/TGID. Am I wrong?
