-.SH DESCRIPTION
-.TP
-.IR /proc/ tid /children " (since Linux 3.5)"
-.\" commit 818411616baf46ceba0cff6f05af3a9b294734f7
-A space-separated list of child tasks of this task.
-Each child task is represented by its TID.
-.IP
-.\" see comments in get_children_pid() in fs/proc/array.c
-This option is intended for use by the checkpoint-restore (CRIU) system,
-and reliably provides a list of children only if all of the child processes
-are stopped or frozen.
-It does not work properly if children of the target task exit while
-the file is being read!
-Exiting children may cause non-exiting children to be omitted from the list.
-This makes this interface even more unreliable than classic PID-based
-approaches if the inspected task and its children aren't frozen,
-and most code should probably not use this interface.
-.IP
-Until Linux 4.2, the presence of this file was governed by the
-.B CONFIG_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE
-kernel configuration option.
-Since Linux 4.2,
-.\" commit 2e13ba54a2682eea24918b87ad3edf70c2cf085b
-it is governed by the
-.B CONFIG_PROC_CHILDREN
-option.
