From 81be24b8cdeb69e62f9d1b6b425fd9ffdd37f581 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tejun Heo Date: Thu, 2 Jun 2011 11:13:59 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ptrace: relocate set_current_state(TASK_TRACED) in ptrace_stop() In ptrace_stop(), after arch hook is done, the task state and jobctl bits are updated while holding siglock. The ordering requirement there is that TASK_TRACED is set before JOBCTL_TRAPPING is cleared to prevent ptracer waiting on TRAPPING doesn't end up waking up TRACED is actually set and sees TASK_RUNNING in wait(2). Move set_current_state(TASK_TRACED) to the top of the block and reorganize comments. This makes the ordering more obvious (TASK_TRACED before other updates) and helps future updates to group stop participation. This patch doesn't cause any functional change.
