Subject: kernel/sysctl.c: threads-max observe limits
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=16db3d3f1170fb0efca652c9378ce7c5f5cb4232;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

kernel/sysctl.c: threads-max observe limits

Users can change the maximum number of threads by writing to
/proc/sys/kernel/threads-max.

With the patch the value entered is checked against the same limits that
apply when fork_init is called.
