Subject: [PATCH 3/5] procfs: use symlinks for /proc/<pid>/task when not thread group leader
From: Jeff Mahoney <jeffm@...e.com>
Although readdir only lists thread group leaders at the tgid-level of
/proc, it's possible to do a lookup to get individual threads back. The
directory contains all of the usual tgid-level files and directories,
including task. The task directory contains directories for every sibling
thread populated with the usual complement of files, all of which are
identical to the files contained under the tgid's own task directory.
If every thread is looked up, we'll create n^2 directories and there
is no sharing among them. For a 3000-thread task, that becomes a pretty
big number.
This patch avoids the duplication by retaining the tgid's copy of
the task directory and converting the other threads' task directory
to a symbolic link to the tgid's copy.
