Re: CVS commit: src/sys/kern



In an earlier message I said ...

  | Maybe the real bug here was that proc_reparent() is changing the
  | child's p_ppid ?
  | 
  | I can see no reason for that,

There is one, an obvious one, I had forgotten ... when a child is
inherited by init, we want its ppid to become 1.   That one is something
of a special case as it is the one permanent reparenting that exists,
and the modification of p_ppid there could be handled outside proc_reparent()
