SubjectRe: [PATCH] vt: Make vt_pid a struct pid (making it pid wrap around safe).
DateSun, 10 Sep 2006 23:28:09 -0600
Grr.  Here is the other half of my confusion.

The patch:
[PATCH] vt: Rework the console spawning variables.
is fine.

The patch:
[PATCH] vt: Make vt_pid a struct pid (making it pid wrap around safe).
which uses xchg() is racy, and needs to be fixed.

Oleg could you confirm that quick analysis.

Thanks,
Eric
