+ * What is struct pid?
+ *
+ * A struct pid is the kernel's internal notion of a process identifier.
+ * It refers to individual tasks, process groups, and sessions. While
+ * there are processes attached to it the struct pid lives in a hash
+ * table, so it and then the processes that it refers to can be found
+ * quickly from the numeric pid value. The attached processes may be
+ * quickly accessed by following pointers from struct pid.
+ *
+ * Storing pid_t values in the kernel and refering to them later has a
+ * problem. The process originally with that pid may have exited and the
+ * pid allocator wrapped, and another process could have come along
+ * and been assigned that pid.
+ *
+ * Referring to user space processes by holding a reference to struct
+ * task_struct has a problem. When the user space process exits
+ * the now useless task_struct is still kept. A task_struct plus a
+ * stack consumes around 10K of low kernel memory. More precisely
+ * this is THREAD_SIZE + sizeof(struct task_struct). By comparison
+ * a struct pid is about 64 bytes.
+ *
+ * Holding a reference to struct pid solves both of these problems.
+ * It is small so holding a reference does not consume a lot of
+ * resources, and since a new struct pid is allocated when the numeric
+ * pid value is reused we don't mistakenly refer to new processes.
