[PATCH] selftests/x86/ptrace_syscall: Fix for yet more glibc interference

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



glibc keeps getting cleverer, and my version now turns raise() into
more than one syscall.  Since the test relies on ptrace seeing an
exact set of syscalls, this breaks the test.  Replace raise(SIGSTOP)
with syscall(SYS_tgkill, ...) to force glibc to get out of our way.
