Subject: [PATCH] alpha: convert to generic sys_ptrace
Date: Sat, 8 Sep 2007 21:12:57 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070908191257.GA5075@lst.de> (raw)
This patch converts alpha to the generic sys_ptrace. We use
force_successful_syscall_return to avoid having to pass the pt_regs
pointer down to the function. I think the removal of the assemly
stub is correct, but I could only compile-test this patch, so please
give it a spin before commiting :)
