From 35114fcbe0b9b0fa3f6653a2a8e4c6b8a9f8cc2d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Tue, 6 Aug 2013 17:43:37 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "ptrace: PTRACE_DETACH should do flush_ptrace_hw_breakpoint(child)" This reverts commit fab840fc2d542fabcab903db8e03589a6702ba5f. This commit even has the test-case to prove that the tracee can be killed by SIGTRAP if the debugger does not remove the breakpoints before PTRACE_DETACH. However, this is exactly what wineserver deliberately does, set_thread_context() calls PTRACE_ATTACH + PTRACE_DETACH just for PTRACE_POKEUSER(DR*) in between. So we should revert this fix and document that PTRACE_DETACH should keep the breakpoints.
