Hey, what's up people
<invano>
I need to monitor the existence of a set of pids with a timer. I have a probe timer.s(5) for this. Inside the timer I'm querying pid2task(pid) and check if there is a valid task
<invano>
The problem is that this is a quite ugly solution
<invano>
Do you have any suggestions for this?
<invano>
I could monitor when processes exit e.g. probe kprocess.exit but in this way I miss processes killed because of signals
<invano>
Uh ok kprocess.exit is on do_exit so that would be fine. I don't know why I was thinking it was on sys_exit
