From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Wed, 30 Apr 2008 07:53:14 +0000 (-0700) Subject: ptrace: ptrace_attach: use send_sig_info() instead force_sig_specific() X-Git-Tag: v2.6.26-rc1~262 X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=33e9fc7d01269737cd5a3b6de1db9d0e796ab708;p=karo-tx-linux.git ptrace: ptrace_attach: use send_sig_info() instead force_sig_specific() Nobody can block/ignore SIGSTOP, no need to use force_sig_specific() in ptrace_attach. Use the "regular" send_sig_info(). With this patch stracing of /sbin/init doesn't clear its SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE, but not that this makes ptracing of init safe.
