Subject: [merged] ptrace-x86-simplify-the-disable-logic-in-ptrace_write_dr7.patch removed from -mm tree To: oleg@xxxxxxxxxx,benh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,fweisbec@xxxxxxxxx,jan.kratochvil@xxxxxxxxxx,lethal@xxxxxxxxxxxx,linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,mikey@xxxxxxxxxxx,mingo@xxxxxxxxxx,paulus@xxxxxxxxx,prasad@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,will.deacon@xxxxxxx,mm-commits@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx From: akpm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Tue, 09 Jul 2013 16:21:13 -0700 The patch titled Subject: ptrace/x86: simplify the "disable" logic in ptrace_write_dr7() has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was ptrace-x86-simplify-the-disable-logic-in-ptrace_write_dr7.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: ptrace/x86: simplify the "disable" logic in ptrace_write_dr7() ptrace_write_dr7() looks unnecessarily overcomplicated. We can factor out ptrace_modify_breakpoint() and do not do "continue" twice, just we need to pass the proper "disabled" argument to ptrace_modify_breakpoint().
