From 85ec7fd9f8e528c4f61d595cfe4df7681a19f252 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Tue, 15 Dec 2009 16:47:17 -0800 Subject: ptrace: introduce user_single_step_siginfo() helper Suggested by Roland. Currently there is no way to synthesize a single-stepping trap in the arch-independent manner. This patch adds the default helper which fills siginfo_t, arch/ can can override it. Architetures which implement user_enable_single_step() should add user_single_step_siginfo() also.
