Subject: Current utrace breaks UML
Date: Tue, 22 May 2007 17:38:31 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070522213831.GB10293@c2.user-mode-linux.org> (raw)

This chunk from linux-2.6-utrace.patch breaks PTRACE_SYSEMU, which UML
rather relies on.

@@ -514,9 +514,6 @@ syscall_trace_entry:
 	movl %esp, %eax
 	xorl %edx,%edx
 	call do_syscall_trace
-	cmpl $0, %eax
-	jne resume_userspace		# ret != 0 -> running under PTRACE_SYSEMU,
-					# so must skip actual syscall
 	movl PT_ORIG_EAX(%esp), %eax
 	cmpl $(nr_syscalls), %eax
 	jnae syscall_call

If the point of this patch was to completely remove ptrace support,
with later patches adding it back, then that chunk should be added
back in utrace-ptrace-compat.patch.
