Hi,
I ported some generic SunOS ptrace requests from my 2.4 exptrace kernel
patch to the 2.5 tree. The PTRACE_READDATA/WRITEDATA requests have been
available for a long time for the sparc architecture but I think they're
also very useful on the i386 arch since PTRACE_PEEKDATA/POKEDATA are way
too slow when handling large data blocks.
Frank.
