ptrace: introduce ptrace_event_enabled() and simplify ptrace_event() and tracehook_prepare_clone()
This patch implements ptrace_event_enabled() which tests whether a given PTRACE_EVENT_* is enabled and use it to simplify ptrace_event() and tracehook_prepare_clone(). PT_EVENT_FLAG() macro is added which calculates PT_TRACE_* flag from PTRACE_EVENT_*. This is used to define PT_TRACE_* flags and by ptrace_event_enabled() to find the matching flag. This is used to make ptrace_event() and tracehook_prepare_clone() simpler. * ptrace_event() callers were responsible for providing mask to test whether the event was enabled. This patch implements ptrace_event_enabled() and make ptrace_event() drop @mask and determine whether the event is enabled from @event. Note that @event is constant and this conversion doesn't add runtime overhead. All conversions except tracehook_report_clone_complete() are trivial. tracehook_report_clone_complete() used to use 0 for @mask (always enabled) but now tests whether the specified event is enabled. This doesn't cause any behavior difference as it's guaranteed that the event specified by @trace is enabled. * tracehook_prepare_clone() now only determines which event is applicable and use ptrace_event_enabled() for enable test. This doesn't introduce any behavior change. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>
