Subject: [PATCH 04/17] ptrace: relocate set_current_state(TASK_TRACED) in ptrace_stop()
Date: Mon, 30 May 2011 01:12:27 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1306710760-16440-5-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1306710760-16440-1-git-send-email-tj@kernel.org>
In ptrace_stop(), after arch hook is done, the task state and jobctl
bits are updated while holding siglock. The ordering requirement
there is that TASK_TRACED is set before JOBCTL_TRAPPING is cleared to
prevent ptracer waiting on TRAPPING doesn't end up waking up TRACED is
actually set and sees TASK_RUNNING in wait(2).
Move set_current_state(TASK_TRACED) to the top of the block and
reorganize comments. This makes the ordering more obvious
(TASK_TRACED before other updates) and helps future updates to group
stop participation.
This patch doesn't cause any functional change.
