Subject: [PATCH 6/9] job control: make task_clear_jobctl_pending() clear TRAPPING automatically
JOBCTL_TRAPPING indicates that ptracer is waiting for tracee to
(re)transit into TRACED. task_clear_jobctl_pending() must be called
when either tracee enters TRACED or the transition is cancelled for
some reason. The former is achieved by explicitly calling
task_clear_jobctl_pending() in ptrace_stop() and the latter by calling
it at the end of do_signal_stop().
Calling task_clear_jobctl_trapping() at the end of do_signal_stop()
limits the scope TRAPPING can be used and is fragile in that seemingly
unrelated changes to tracee's control flow can lead to stuck TRAPPING.
We already have task_clear_jobctl_pending() calls on those cancelling
events to clear JOBCTL_STOP_PENDING. Cancellations can be handled by
making those call sites use JOBCTL_PENDING_MASK instead and updating
task_clear_jobctl_pending() such that task_clear_jobctl_trapping() is
called automatically if no stop/trap is pending.
This patch makes the above changes and removes the fallback
task_clear_jobctl_trapping() call from do_signal_stop().
