From cd81a9170e69e018bbaba547c1fd85a585f5697a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mateusz Guzik Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2016 16:20:38 +0200 Subject: mm: introduce get_task_exe_file For more convenient access if one has a pointer to the task. As a minor nit take advantage of the fact that only task lock + rcu are needed to safely grab ->exe_file. This saves mm refcount dance. Use the helper in proc_exe_link.
