Subject: [PATCH 10/14] ptrace: don't consume group count from ptrace_stop()
Date: Fri, 26 Nov 2010 11:49:25 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1290768569-16224-11-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1290768569-16224-1-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org>

Now that group stop pending and consumed states are properly tracked
per task, there is no need to consume group_stop_count from
ptrace_stop() which is inaccurate.

The only behavior change is the increased likelihood of missing
notifications for group stops if the thread group contains one or more
ptraced tasks, but they never were reliable in the presence of ptraced
tasks.  With this change, consume_group_stop() is called only if group
stop is pending.  Make sure it is so by adding WARN_ON_ONCE().
