From 33e9fc7d01269737cd5a3b6de1db9d0e796ab708 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Wed, 30 Apr 2008 00:53:14 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] ptrace: ptrace_attach: use send_sig_info() instead force_sig_specific() Nobody can block/ignore SIGSTOP, no need to use force_sig_specific() in ptrace_attach. Use the "regular" send_sig_info(). With this patch stracing of /sbin/init doesn't clear its SIGNAL_UNKILLABLE, but not that this makes ptracing of init safe.
