Peter Anvin" , Ingo Molnar , Paul Mackerras , Roland McGrath , Srinivasa Ds , Thomas Gleixner , linux-arch@vger.kernel.org, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH v2 0/5] ptrace: syscall-exit && stepping fixes Message-ID: <20091112173840.GA12260@redhat.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.18 (2008-05-17) Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Changes: added x86 maintainers + linux-arch, otherwise unchanged. Currently PTRACE_SINGLESTEP after syscall_exit stop is not consistent across different machines, and we have different problems depending on arch/. As Roland suggests, we should move the arch-dependent logic into the tracehook_report_syscall_exit() and unify/fix the behaviour. Oleg.
