Uh, this turns out to be my stupid programming error, not a bug in
any of the fine versions of the Linux kernel.

My apologies to anyone who invested time looking at this.

2.0/2.2 Bug: SIGTRAP lost

2000-09-27 Thread Victor Zandy 


If a process executes an int3 (breakpoint) instruction while
another process is attaching to it, the SIGTRAP can be lost.  This bug
is present in 2.4.0-test8 and 2.2.14.

Below is a program that demonstrates this behavior.  It forks a
child that repeatedly executes an int3 and handles the SIGTRAP.  The
parent repeatedly attaches and detaches to the child.  Eventually the
SIGTRAP generated by the int3 is lost, and the child falls through (to
the fprintf).
