From f284ce7269031947326bac6bb19a977705276222 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexey Dobriyan Date: Tue, 17 Jul 2007 04:03:44 -0700 Subject: PTRACE_POKEDATA consolidation Identical implementations of PTRACE_POKEDATA go into generic_ptrace_pokedata() function. AFAICS, fix bug on xtensa where successful PTRACE_POKEDATA will nevertheless return EPERM.
