The patch titled ptrace_signal() subroutine has been added to the -mm tree. Its filename is ptrace_signal-subroutine.patch Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/SubmitChecklist when testing your code *** See http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/added-to-mm.txt to find out what to do about this The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: ptrace_signal() subroutine From: Roland McGrath <roland@xxxxxxxxxx> This breaks out the ptrace handling from get_signal_to_deliver into a new subroutine. The actual code there doesn't change, and it gets inlined into nearly identical compiled code. This makes the function substantially shorter and thus easier to read, and it nicely isolates the ptrace magic.
