Today the rules are a bit iffy and arbitrary about which kernel threads have struct kthread present. Both idle threads and thread started with create_kthread want struct kthread present so that is effectively all kernel threads. Make the rule that if PF_KTHREAD and the task is running then struct kthread is present. This will allow the kernel thread code to using tsk->exit_code with different semantics from ordinary processes. To make ensure that struct kthread is present for all kernel threads move it's allocation into copy_process. Add a deallocation of struct kthread in exec for processes that were kernel threads. Move the allocation of struct kthread for the initial thread earlier so that it is not repeated for each additional idle thread. Move the initialization of struct kthread into set_kthread_struct so that the structure is always and reliably initailized. Clear set_child_tid in free_kthread_struct to ensure the kthread struct is reliably freed during exec. The function free_kthread_struct does not need to clear vfork_done during exec as exec_mm_release called from exec_mmap has already cleared vfork_done. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
