[PATCH v7 3.2-rc2 28/30] uprobes: introduce UTASK_SSTEP_TRAPPED logic

From: Srikar Dronamraju
Date: Fri Nov 18 2011 - 06:38:31 EST



Add UTASK_SSTEP_TRAPPED state/code to handle the case when
xol insn itself triggers the signal.

In this case we should restart the original insn even if the task is
already SIGKILL'ed (say, the coredump should report the correct ip).
This is even more important if the task has a handler for SIGSEGV/etc,
The _same_ instruction should be repeated again after return from the
signal handler, and SSTEP can never finish in this case.

Change uprobe_deny_signal() to set UTASK_SSTEP_TRAPPED and TIF_UPROBE. It
also sets TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME.

When uprobe_notify_resume() sees UTASK_SSTEP_TRAPPED it does abort_xol()
instead of post_xol().
