/* Supported prctl() commands.
*
* PR_SET_NAME
* Set the task (or thread) name for the thread whose ID is in required
* arg2 (int), using the value in the location pointed to by required arg1
* (char*). The name can be up to CONFIG_TASK_NAME_SIZE long (including
* any null termination). The thread ID of 0 will set the name of the
* calling thread. As an example:
*
* prctl(PR_SET_NAME, "MyName", 0);
*
* PR_GET_NAME
* Return the task (or thread) name for the for the thread whose ID is
* optional arg2 (int), in the buffer pointed to by optional arg1 (char *).
* The buffer must be CONFIG_TASK_NAME_SIZE long (including any null
* termination). As an example:
*
* char myname[CONFIG_TASK_NAME_SIZE];
* prctl(PR_GET_NAME, myname, 0);
