Don't define this until you have all its constituents as listed in the
arch/Kconfig comment.  I don't see user_regset support.

i is the starting number.  args[0] gets the i'th argument,
args[n - 1] gets the i+n-1'th argument.

Is it in fact true that single-step reports still come normally after a
syscall instruction?

This call should be made unconditionally, and it should be made after the
signal mask changes have been made (i.e. at the end of handle_signal).  I
think it's wrong to clear the single-step flag here.  Instead, pass
(regs->syscfg & TRACE_BITS) as the last argument.

With ptrace, it makes no difference one way or the other because it will
always either explicitly clear or explicitly set single-step before it
resumes.  But in future, it will matter.


Thanks,
Roland
