19  * What is struct pid?
20  *
21  * A struct pid is the kernel's internal notion of a process identifier.
22  * It refers to individual tasks, process groups, and sessions.  While
23  * there are processes attached to it the struct pid lives in a hash
24  * table, so it and then the processes that it refers to can be found
25  * quickly from the numeric pid value.  The attached processes may be
26  * quickly accessed by following pointers from struct pid.
27  *
28  * Storing pid_t values in the kernel and referring to them later has a
29  * problem.  The process originally with that pid may have exited and the
30  * pid allocator wrapped, and another process could have come along
31  * and been assigned that pid.
32  *
33  * Referring to user space processes by holding a reference to struct
34  * task_struct has a problem.  When the user space process exits
35  * the now useless task_struct is still kept.  A task_struct plus a
36  * stack consumes around 10K of low kernel memory.  More precisely
37  * this is THREAD_SIZE + sizeof(struct task_struct).  By comparison
38  * a struct pid is about 64 bytes.
39  *
40  * Holding a reference to struct pid solves both of these problems.
41  * It is small so holding a reference does not consume a lot of
42  * resources, and since a new struct pid is allocated when the numeric pid
43  * value is reused (when pids wrap around) we don't mistakenly refer to new
44  * processes.
