[PATCH v2 1/3] scripts/gdb/tasks: Fix lx-ps command error
From: Kuan-Ying Lee
Date: Wed Nov 29 2023 - 01:51:57 EST
Since commit 8e1f385104ac ("kill task_struct->thread_group") remove
the thread_group, we will encounter below issue.
(gdb) lx-ps
TASK PID COMM
0xffff800086503340 0 swapper/0
Python Exception <class 'gdb.error'>: There is no member named thread_group.
Error occurred in Python: There is no member named thread_group.
We use signal->thread_head to iterate all threads instead.
Fixes: 8e1f385104ac ("kill task_struct->thread_group")
