From 570f52412ae9432c56897472791ea8db420cbaf1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sergey Senozhatsky Date: Fri, 1 Jan 2016 23:03:01 +0900 Subject: sched/core: Check tgid in is_global_init() Our global init task can have sub-threads, so ->pid check is not reliable enough for is_global_init(), we need to check tgid instead. This has been spotted by Oleg and a fix was proposed by Richard a long time ago (see the link below). Oleg wrote: : Because is_global_init() is only true for the main thread of /sbin/init. : : Just look at oom_unkillable_task(). It tries to not kill init. But, say, : select_bad_process() can happily find a sub-thread of is_global_init() : and still kill it. I recently hit the problem in question; re-sending the patch (to the best of my knowledge it has never been submitted) with updated function comment. Credit goes to Oleg and Richard.

Since all the sched bits are serialized by scheduler locks, pull them in a separate word.
