[PATCH] SYSEMU: fix sysaudit / singlestep interaction
Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it> This is simply an adjustment for "Ptrace - i386: fix Syscall Audit interaction with singlestep" to work on top of SYSEMU patches, too. On this patch, I have some doubts: I wonder why we need to alter that way ptrace_disable(). I left the patch this way because it has been extensively tested, but I don't understand the reason. The current PTRACE_DETACH handling simply clears child->ptrace; actually this is not enough because entry.S just looks at the thread_flags; actually, do_syscall_trace checks current->ptrace but I don't think depending on that is good, at least for performance, so I think the clearing is done elsewhere. For instance, on PTRACE_CONT it's done, but doing PTRACE_DETACH without PTRACE_CONT is possible (and happens when gdb crashes and one kills it manually).
