- /* For the time being this function returns NULL, as it's not currently
- * possible to safely acquire a reference to a task with RCU protection
- * using get_task_struct() and put_task_struct(). This is due to the
- * slightly odd mechanics of p->rcu_users, and how task RCU protection
- * works.
- *
- * A struct task_struct is refcounted by two different refcount_t
- * fields:
- *
- * 1. p->usage: The "true" refcount field which tracks a task's
- * lifetime. The task is freed as soon as this
- * refcount drops to 0.
- *
- * 2. p->rcu_users: An "RCU users" refcount field which is statically
- * initialized to 2, and is co-located in a union with
- * a struct rcu_head field (p->rcu). p->rcu_users
- * essentially encapsulates a single p->usage
- * refcount, and when p->rcu_users goes to 0, an RCU
- * callback is scheduled on the struct rcu_head which
- * decrements the p->usage refcount.
- *
- * There are two important implications to this task refcounting logic
- * described above. The first is that
- * refcount_inc_not_zero(&p->rcu_users) cannot be used anywhere, as
- * after the refcount goes to 0, the RCU callback being scheduled will
- * cause the memory backing the refcount to again be nonzero due to the
- * fields sharing a union. The other is that we can't rely on RCU to
- * guarantee that a task is valid in a BPF program. This is because a
- * task could have already transitioned to being in the TASK_DEAD
- * state, had its rcu_users refcount go to 0, and its rcu callback
- * invoked in which it drops its single p->usage reference. At this
- * point the task will be freed as soon as the last p->usage reference
- * goes to 0, without waiting for another RCU gp to elapse. The only
- * way that a BPF program can guarantee that a task is valid is in this
- * scenario is to hold a p->usage refcount itself.
- *
- * Until we're able to resolve this issue, either by pulling
- * p->rcu_users and p->rcu out of the union, or by getting rid of
- * p->usage and just using p->rcu_users for refcounting, we'll just
- * return NULL here.
