Create a generic netlink interface (NETLINK_GENERIC family),
called "taskstats", for getting delay and cpu statistics of
tasks and thread groups during their lifetime and when they exit.

EFAULT?



It shouldn't be (Shailabh please comment). We will fix it.


Sorry, it should return the value returned by genl_register_family.

I copied the code from net/tipc/netlink.c
where a similarly erroneous errno is being used. We'll submit a fix
for that as well.
