[PATCH V2] tracing: Revert "tracing: Remove pid in task_rename tracing output"

From: Xuewen Yan

Date: Fri Mar 06 2026 - 03:05:09 EST


This reverts commit e3f6a42272e028c46695acc83fc7d7c42f2750ad.

The commit says that the tracepoint only deals with the current task,
however the following case is not current task:

comm_write() {
p = get_proc_task(inode);
if (!p)
return -ESRCH;

if (same_thread_group(current, p))
set_task_comm(p, buffer);
}
where set_task_comm() calls __set_task_comm() which records
the update of p and not current.

So revert the patch to show pid.
