> Even tgkill() can't 100% protect against PID reuse, but I agree it is better.

If the process-wide PID (tgid) is not reused, which it never is silently
when ptrace'd today, then tgkill does protect completely against TID reuse.
With ptrace as it is today, there is only a silent TID reuse risk in the
case of MT exec.


Thanks,
Roland
