    ptrace: Call arch_ptrace_attach() when request=PTRACE_TRACEME · 6ea6dd93

    arch_ptrace_attach() is a hook that allows the architecture to do
    book-keeping after a ptrace attach. This patch adds a call to this
    hook when handling a PTRACE_TRACEME request as well.
    
    Currently only one architecture, m32r, implements this hook. When
    called, it initializes a number of debug trap slots in the ptraced
    task's thread struct, and it looks to me like this is the right thing
    to do after a PTRACE_TRACEME request as well, not only after
    PTRACE_ATTACH. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
    
    I want to use this hook on AVR32 to turn the debugging hardware on
    when a process is actually being debugged and keep it off otherwise.
    To be able to do this, I need to intercept PTRACE_TRACEME and
    PTRACE_ATTACH, as well as PTRACE_DETACH and thread exit. The latter
    two can be handled by existing hooks.
