The patch titled
ptrace: fix 2.6.25 ptrace_bts_config structure declaration
has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was
ptrace-fix-2625-ptrace_bts_config-structure-declaration.patch
This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

Subject: ptrace: fix 2.6.25 ptrace_bts_config structure declaration
From: Dave Anderson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
The 2.6.25 ptrace_bts_config structure in asm-x86/ptrace-abi.h is defined
with u32 types:
#include <asm/types.h>
/* configuration/status structure used in PTRACE_BTS_CONFIG and
PTRACE_BTS_STATUS commands.
*/
struct ptrace_bts_config {
/* requested or actual size of BTS buffer in bytes */
u32 size;
/* bitmask of below flags */
u32 flags;
/* buffer overflow signal */
u32 signal;
/* actual size of bts_struct in bytes */
u32 bts_size;
};
#endif
But u32 is only accessible in asm-x86/types.h if __KERNEL__, leading to
compile errors when ptrace.h is included from user-space. Perhaps the
double-underscore versions that are exported to user-space in
asm-x86/types.h should be used instead?
