Subject: [PATCH 0/12] ptrace: cleaning up ptrace_stop


The states TASK_STOPPED and TASK_TRACE are special in they can not
handle spurious wake-ups.  This plus actively depending upon and
changing the value of tsk->__state causes problems for PREEMPT_RT and
Peter's freezer rewrite.

There are a lot of details we have to get right to sort out the
technical challenges and this is my parred back version of the changes
that contains just those problems I see good solutions to that I believe
are ready.

In particular I don't have a solution that is ready for the challenges
presented by wait_task_inactive.

I hope we can review these changes and then have a firm foundation
for the rest of the challenges.

There are cleanups to the ptrace support for xtensa, um, and
ia64.

I have sucked in the first patch of Peter's freezer change as
with minor modifications I believe it is ready to go.

Eric W. Biederman (12):
      signal: Rename send_signal send_signal_locked
      signal: Replace __group_send_sig_info with send_signal_locked
      ptrace/um: Replace PT_DTRACE with TIF_SINGLESTEP
      ptrace/xtensa: Replace PT_SINGLESTEP with TIF_SINGLESTEP
      signal: Use lockdep_assert_held instead of assert_spin_locked
      ptrace: Reimplement PTRACE_KILL by always sending SIGKILL
      ptrace: Don't change __state
      ptrace: Remove arch_ptrace_attach
      ptrace: Always take siglock in ptrace_resume
      ptrace: Only return signr from ptrace_stop if it was provided
      ptrace: Always call schedule in ptrace_stop
      sched,signal,ptrace: Rework TASK_TRACED, TASK_STOPPED state
