Subject: [PATCH 11/14] uml: work around broken host PTRACE_SYSEMU
Date: Fri, 1 Aug 2008 18:41:33 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080801224133.GA13715@c2.user-mode-linux.org> (raw)

>From 81b956c3fec06a5091b9e8909724a8afc7fff1bc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Fedora broke PTRACE_SYSEMU again, and UML crashes as a result when it
doesn't need to.  This patch makes the PTRACE_SYSEMU check fail gracefully
and makes UML fall back to PTRACE_SYSCALL.
