[PATCH 0/5] powerpc tracehook

From: Roland McGrath <hidden>
Date: 2008-07-27 06:49:18

These patches are posted for review, but you can just pull the GIT branch
if you prefer.  Patch 1/5 corrects a long-standing (minor) error in ptrace
behavior.  The others change no existing behavior, just enable new and
future features to work on the arch.

The following changes since commit 8be1a6d6c77ab4532e4476fdb8177030ef48b52c:
  Linus Torvalds (1):
        Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/.../roland/infiniband

Hi Roland !

Thanks for this. I haven't followed the story of tracehook so far, are
those patches dependent on something else or it's all already upstream
and do you think that's still 2.6.27 material ?

Cheers,
Ben.

The infrastructure is in Linus's tree.

Thanks David. I'll review these on monday and if Paul has no objection,
I suppose we can still merge them.

Cheers,
Ben.
