Subject: [PATCH 05/19] job control: make task_clear_jobctl_pending() clear TRAPPING automatically
Date: Tue, 24 May 2011 20:37:25 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1306262259-7285-6-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1306262259-7285-1-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org>

JOBCTL_TRAPPING indicates that ptracer is waiting for tracee to
(re)transit into TRACED.  task_clear_jobctl_pending() must be called
when either tracee enters TRACED or the transition is cancelled for
some reason.  The former is achieved by explicitly calling
task_clear_jobctl_pending() in ptrace_stop() and the latter by calling
it at the end of do_signal_stop().

Calling task_clear_jobctl_trapping() at the end of do_signal_stop()
limits the scope TRAPPING can be used and is fragile in that seemingly
unrelated changes to tracee's control flow can lead to stuck TRAPPING.

We already have task_clear_jobctl_pending() calls on those cancelling
events to clear JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING.  Cancellations can be handled by
making those call sites use JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK instead and updating
task_clear_jobctl_pending() such that task_clear_jobctl_trapping() is
called automatically if no stop/trap is pending.

This patch makes the above changes and removes the fallback
task_clear_jobctl_trapping() call from do_signal_stop().
