[Devel] [PATCH 3/8] CGroup Files: Move the release_agent file to use typed handlers
menage at google.com

Fri Jun 20 16:44:01 PDT 2008
Adds cgroup_release_agent_write() and cgroup_release_agent_show()
methods to handle writing/reading the path to a cgroup hierarchy's
release agent. As a result, cgroup_common_file_read() is now unnecessary.
As part of the change, a previously-tolerated race in
cgroup_release_agent() is avoided by copying the current
release_agent_path prior to calling call_usermode_helper().
