From 300f786b2683f8bb1ec0afb6e1851183a479c86d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cyrill Gorcunov Date: Thu, 7 Jun 2012 14:21:12 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] c/r: prctl: add ability to get clear_tid_address Zero is written at clear_tid_address when the process exits. This functionality is used by pthread_join(). We already have sys_set_tid_address() to change this address for the current task but there is no way to obtain it from user space. Without the ability to find this address and dump it we can't restore pthread'ed apps which call pthread_join() once they have been restored. This patch introduces the PR_GET_TID_ADDRESS prctl option which allows the current process to obtain own clear_tid_address. This feature is available iif CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE is set.
