Process checkpointing needs to bite the bullet and
create its own API instead.
This is bad approach as well. What we should do is come up with a sane
API that makes sense without the checkpoint-restore project _when_ _possible_.
Coming up with a sane API in general isn't easy.
That's what we've put the linux-api@ in Cc for ;)

[snip]
Compared to this, ptrace-attaching to the process
and then reading from /proc or issuing a new ptrace request
looks much cleaner.
Sure it does! Also note, that it also looks much cleaner than the
fancy /proc/pid/checkpoint thing you propose.
My opinion, of course.
Thanks,
Pavel
