[PATCH -mm 08/43] compat_ptrace_request

From: Roland McGrath
Date: Thu Dec 20 2007 - 06:56:56 EST


This adds a compat_ptrace_request that is the analogue of ptrace_request
for the things that 32-on-64 ptrace implementations can share in common.
So far there are just a couple of requests handled generically.
