    uprobes: Kill UTASK_BP_HIT state · 1b08e907
    Oleg Nesterov 提交于
    Kill UTASK_BP_HIT state, it buys nothing but complicates the code.
    It is only used in uprobe_notify_resume() to decide who should be
    called, we can check utask->active_uprobe != NULL instead. And this
    allows us to simplify handle_swbp(), no need to clear utask->state.
    
    Likewise we could kill UTASK_SSTEP, but UTASK_BP_HIT is worse and
    imho should die. The problem is, it creates the special case when
    task->utask is NULL, we can't distinguish RUNNING and BP_HIT. With
    this patch utask == NULL always means RUNNING.
