Message-ID: <20080616075828.GD6950@cs.unibo.it>
Date: Mon, 16 Jun 2008 09:58:28 +0200

Roland McGrath <roland@...hat.com>
Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ptrace_multi: speedup for virtual machines (and debuggers) running on ptrace
This patch implements PTRACE_MULTI.
Several ptrace requests can be packed up and sent together to the
kernel. This speeds up Virtual Machines and, if you like, debuggers.
