Apparently, the patchset merged by commit v5.9-rc1~100^2~164 was incomplete: all functions defined in arch/powerpc/include/asm/ptrace.h and arch/powerpc/include/asm/syscall.h that use ccr are broken when scv is used. This includes syscall_get_error() and all its users including PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO API, which in turn makes strace unusable when scv is used. See also https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1929836 -- ldv
