32 * The concept of process and threads in userland and the kernel is a confusing

34 * however from userland's point of view threads are grouped by a single PID,
35 * which is that of the 'thread group leader', typically the first thread
36 * spawned.
37 *
38 * To cut the Gideon knot, for internal kernel usage, we refer to
39 * PIDFD_SELF_THREAD to refer to the current thread (or task from a kernel
40 * perspective), and PIDFD_SELF_THREAD_GROUP to refer to the current thread
41 * group leader...

60 * they want by setting the corresponding bits in mask. The kernel
61 * will ignore bits that it does not know about.
62 *
63 * When filling the structure, the kernel will only set bits
64 * corresponding to the fields that were actually filled by the kernel.

66 * filled. If the structure size is too small to contain a field
67 * (requested or not), to avoid confusion the mask will not
68 * contain a bit for that field.
