[PATCH 0/5] ptrace tweaks

From: Denys Vlasenko
Date: Fri Feb 10 2012 - 09:43:32 EST


This patch set fixes a minor bug in PTRACE_SETOPTIONS,
slightly extends PTRACE_SEIZE (now it can take ptrace options),
changes PTRACE_EVENT_STOP value,
and enables PTRACE_SEIZE for non-development use.

Ptrace git tree on kernel.org is not restored yet,
so this patch set can't go through it.

Andrew, please consider taking this patch set.

Denys Vlasenko (5):
ptrace: don't modify flags on PTRACE_SETOPTIONS failure
ptrace: simplify PTRACE_foo constants and PTRACE_SETOPTIONS code
ptrace: make PTRACE_SEIZE set ptrace options specified in 'data' parameter
ptrace: renumber PTRACE_EVENT_STOP so that future new options and
events can match
ptrace: remove PTRACE_SEIZE_DEVEL bit
