I wouldn't be printing this verbose info here, anyone who will have to
debug the test failures will look into the source code and at the test
description in the top level comment.

We do not need the checkpoints here at all, we just need to waitpid for
the second child before we kill the first one.

Why is init(1) special here? Is this a regression test?

Looking into the manual page this wasn't supported until 2.6.26. I guess
that we should mention that here in the test description.

Yes, it should be added into the test description. Sorry for not 
explaining why testing init process.  Will add it in v2.

[Yang Xu]

Before kernel 2.6.26, ptrace can't trace init process and will get
EPERM error. Now, it should succeed when we have enough privileges.

Why do we have to retry the detach here?

Other than that the rest looks fine now.

I add a retry here because running attach/detach serval times may make 
init process isn't traced status . Even we have do attach action, detach 
will get ESRCH error .

In kernel/ptrace.c code, it has the following calltrace
SYSCALL_DEFINE4(ptrace...
    =>ptrace_check_attach   //if we don't use PTRACE_ATTACH/PTRACE_SEIZE
      =>ptrace_freeze_traced

/* Ensure that nothing can wake it up, even SIGKILL */
static bool ptrace_freeze_traced(struct task_struct *task)
{
         bool ret = false;

         /* Lockless, nobody but us can set this flag */
         if (task->jobctl & JOBCTL_LISTENING)
                 return ret;
         spin_lock_irq(&task->sighand->siglock);
         if (task_is_traced(task) && !__fatal_signal_pending(task)) {
                 task->state = __TASK_TRACED;
                 ret = true;
         }
         spin_unlock_irq(&task->sighand->siglock);

         return ret;
}

ptrace_freeze_traced() may returns false when we run attach/detach 
serval times, so ptrace_check_attach returns ESRCH error .

To be honset, I don't figure out why task->stat is not task_traced 
status after attaching. I am looking into this.

Looking at the manual page it says:

PTRACE_ATTACH

...
The tracee is sent a SIGSTOP, but will not necessarily have stopped by
the completion of this call; use waitpid(2) to wait for the tracee to
stop.
...

So my guess is that if we call PTRACE_ATTACH followed by the
PTRACE_DETACH we may end up in a state where the SIGSTOP for the traced
process haven't arrived yet and in this case we should get ESCRCH.

So the correct solution is waitpid() for the traced process before we
detach it.

Oh, I ignored it. Sorry.

Yes, using waitpid() is ok. I Will send a v4 soon.

[LTP] [PATCH v4] syscalls/ptrace11: Add test for tracing init process

[Yang Xu]

Before kernel 2.6.26, ptrace can't trace init process and will get
EPERM error. Now, it should succeed when we have enough privileges.

I've reformatted this comment so that it's picked up by documentation

[LTP] [PATCH v2 1/2] syscalls/ptrace02: Add another EPERM error test

[Cyril Hrubis]

Hi!
> Pushed, thanks.

I've pushed a follow up patch that adds an explicit test for return value.

Please be strict in checking the return values in your testcases from
now on.
