[PATCH 2.6.24-rc8-mm1 13/15] (RFC) IPC/semaphores: per <pid> semundo file in procfs

From: pierre . peiffer
Date: Tue Jan 29 2008 - 11:23:50 EST


From: Pierre Peiffer <pierre.peiffer@xxxxxxxx>

This patch adds a new procfs interface to display the per-process semundo
data.

A new per-PID file is added, named "semundo".
It contains one line per semaphore IPC where there is something to undo for
this process.
Then, each line contains the semid followed by each undo value
corresponding to each semaphores of the semaphores array.

This interface will be specially useful to allow a user to access
these data, for example for checkpointing a process
