tracehook: tracehook_signal_handler
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This defines tracehook_signal_handler() as a hook for the arch signal
handling code to call.  It gives ptrace the opportunity to stop for a
pseudo-single-step trap immediately after signal handler setup is done.
