From 545c174d1f093a462b4bb9131b23d5ea72a600e1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gerald Schaefer Date: Wed, 12 May 2010 09:32:12 +0200 Subject: [S390] ptrace: fix return value of do_syscall_trace_enter() strace may change the system call number, so regs->gprs[2] must not be read before tracehook_report_syscall_entry(). This fixes a bug where "strace -f" will hang after a vfork().
