Cover letter [PATCH 0/2] more tweaks (Was: ptrace tweaks)

Quoted 10 lines · Denys Vlasenko

This patch set fixes a minor bug in PTRACE_SETOPTIONS, slightly extends PTRACE_SEIZE (now it can take ptrace options), changes PTRACE_EVENT_STOP value,
and enables PTRACE_SEIZE for non-development use.
Ptrace git tree on kernel.org is not restored yet, so this patch set can't go through it.
Andrew, please consider taking this patch set.

Yes, please...

I was going to send 1-4 to Linus a long ago, but I can't restore my korg account.

Plus I have a couple of other minor ptrace changes, could you take them too ?

Chris, iirc you suggested to add PTRACE_O_KILL_TRACEE_IF_DEBUGGER_DIES. The necessary change is simple, please suggest the good name for the new option ;)

Oleg.
