Re: List of Processes




iirc there is a macro defined already "for_each_process" that you can
use to get all the processes

struct task_struct *p;

for_each_process (p) {
   ....
}

/* sched.h */

for_each_task(p){
...
}

for_each_task(p)
{
...
}

You will each task's descriptor on p on each loop. The first one will be that of init. You will automatically break from loop when you finish traverse through all tasks.
Actually a circular list.

#define for_each_task(p) \
	for (p = &init_task ; (p = p->next_task) != &init_task ; )
