Date: Thu, 13 Mar 2008 13:25:01 +0100 From: Miklos Szeredi <miklos@...redi.hu> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org CC: linux-fsdevel@...r.kernel.org, containers@...ts.linux-foundation.org, jean-pierre.andre@...adoo.fr Subject: accessing "nonexistent" /proc/<tid>/ Jean-Pierre noticed, that it's possible to access any task through /proc/<tid>/, not just the thread group leader. Is this intentional? I can't find it documented anywhere, but it's definitely a useful feature. So maybe it's worth making it officially part of the kernel interface, and adding a note to Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt?
