    Subjectproc_pid_stat() question
    Date
    Hi,

    It may be too dumb question ..

    I was wondering how does proc_pid_stat() make sure the task its looking
    at doesn't exit while its looking at task->tty etc.. ?

    I was looking at OOPS, where proc_pid_stat() has garbage for task->tty,
    so "ps" panics.

    Thanks,
    Badari
