[PATCH] Thread core dumps for 2.4.4

From: Don Dugger (n0ano@valinux.com)
Date: Thu May 03 2001 - 09:54:18 EST


The attached patch allows core dumps from thread processes in the 2.4.4
kernel. This patch is the same as the last one I sent out except it fixes
the same bug that `kernel/fork.c' had with duplicate info in the `mm'
structure, plus this patch has had more extensive testing.
