From a71113da44063b587b5a4c2fc94c948a14f2bb43 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric W. Biederman Date: Wed, 13 Dec 2006 00:35:10 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] smbfs: Make conn_pid a struct pid smbfs keeps track of the user space server process in conn_pid. This converts that track to use a struct pid instead of pid_t. This keeps us safe from pid wrap around issues and prepares the way for the pid namespace. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
