This is a patch that adds support for PTRACE_SYSEMU ptrace request in
PowerPC architecture.
When ptrace(PTRACE_SYSEMU, ...) request is called, it will be handled by
the arch independent function ptrace_resume(), which will tag the task with
the TIF_SYSCALL_EMU flag. This flag needs to be handled from a platform
dependent point of view, which is what this patch does.
This patch adds this task's flag as part of the _TIF_SYSCALL_DOTRACE, which
is the MACRO that is used to trace syscalls at entrance/exit.
Since TIF_SYSCALL_EMU is now part of _TIF_SYSCALL_DOTRACE, if the task has
_TIF_SYSCALL_DOTRACE set, it will hit do_syscall_trace_enter() at syscall
entrance and do_syscall_trace_leave() at syscall leave.
do_syscall_trace_enter() needs to handle the TIF_SYSCALL_EMU flag properly,
which will interrupt the syscall executing if TIF_SYSCALL_EMU is set. The
output values should not be changed, i.e. the return value (r3) should
contain the original syscall argument on exit.
With this flag set, the syscall is not executed fundamentally, because
do_syscall_trace_enter() is returning -1 which is bigger than NR_syscall,
thus, skipping the syscall execution and exiting userspace.
