From 7c8df28633bf0b7eb253f866029be0ac59ddb062 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Mon, 8 Jul 2013 16:00:54 -0700 Subject: ptrace: revert "Prepare to fix racy accesses on task breakpoints" This reverts commit bf26c018490c ("Prepare to fix racy accesses on task breakpoints"). The patch was fine but we can no longer race with SIGKILL after commit 9899d11f6544 ("ptrace: ensure arch_ptrace/ptrace_request can never race with SIGKILL"), the __TASK_TRACED tracee can't be woken up and ->ptrace_bps[] can't go away. Now that ptrace_get_breakpoints/ptrace_put_breakpoints have no callers, we can kill them and remove task->ptrace_bp_refcnt.
