[PATCH 1/2] clone: Declare do_fork() only when available

Show all headers | View raw

The commit 3033f14ab78c32687 ("clone: support passing tls argument via C
rather than pt_regs magic") introduced _do_fork() that allowed to pass
@tls parameter.

The old do_fork() is defined only for architectures that are not ready
to use this way and do not define HAVE_COPY_THREAD_TLS. But the function
is always declared in linux/sched.h.

This patch hides the declaration when the function is not defined.
