The patch titled uml: work around broken host PTRACE_SYSEMU has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was uml-work-around-broken-host-ptrace_sysemu.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ Subject: uml: work around broken host PTRACE_SYSEMU From: Jeff Dike <jdike@xxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora broke PTRACE_SYSEMU again, and UML crashes as a result when it doesn't need to. This patch makes the PTRACE_SYSEMU check fail gracefully and makes UML fall back to PTRACE_SYSCALL.
