[PATCH 2/3] pidhash: don't use zero pids

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Mon Jan 30 2006 - 04:47:43 EST


daemonize() calls set_special_pids(1,1), while init and
kernel threads spawned from init/main.c:init() run with
0,0 special pids. This patch changes INIT_SIGNALS() so
that that they run with ->pgrp == ->session == 1 also.

This patch relies on fact that swapper's pid == 1.

Now we never use pid == 0 in kernel/pid.c.

[ Andrew, this patch obsoletes "[PATCH] pid: Don't hash pid 0.",
filename pid-dont-hash-pid-0.patch ].
