    proc: Implement /proc/thread-self to point at the directory of the current thread · 0097875b
    Eric W. Biederman authored
    /proc/thread-self is derived from /proc/self.  /proc/thread-self
    points to the directory in proc containing information about the
    current thread.
    
    This funtionality has been missing for a long time, and is tricky to
    implement in userspace as gettid() is not exported by glibc.  More
    importantly this allows fixing defects in /proc/mounts and /proc/net
    where in a threaded application today they wind up being empty files
    when only the initial pthread has exited, causing problems for other
    threads.
