[patch 3/4] Uml support: add PTRACE_SYSEMU_SINGLESTEP option to i386

[blaisorblade]

From: Bodo Stroesser <bstroesser@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This patch implements the new ptrace option PTRACE_SYSEMU_SINGLESTEP, which
can be used by UML to singlestep a process: it will receive SINGLESTEP
interceptions for normal instructions and syscalls, but syscall execution will
be skipped just like with PTRACE_SYSEMU.
