From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Thu, 2 Apr 2009 23:58:13 +0000 (-0700) Subject: ptrace: reintroduce __ptrace_detach() as a callee of ptrace_exit() X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b1b4c6799fb59e710454bfe0ab477cb8523a8667;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git ptrace: reintroduce __ptrace_detach() as a callee of ptrace_exit() No functional changes, preparation for the next patch. Move the "should we release this child" logic into the separate handler, __ptrace_detach().
