            Bug ID: 498103
           Summary: Clean up/merge linux sys_ptrace PRE/POST wrappers
    Classification: Developer tools
           Product: valgrind
           Version: 3.24 GIT
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: jsew...@acm.org
          Reporter: m...@klomp.org
  Target Milestone: ---

Most linux arches have architecture specific POST/PRE(sys_ptrace) wrappers.
But they only handle a subset of (current) ptrace commands.

The linux-riscv port (bug #468575) adds a default case:
VG_(umsg)("WARNING: unhandled ptrace request %ld.\n", SARG1);

Which produces:
==173031== WARNING: unhandled ptrace request 16.
==173031== WARNING: unhandled ptrace request 17.
(which is PTRACE_ATTACH and PTRACE_DETACH also not explicitly handled by any
other linux arch)

linux-ppc32 doesn't wrap ptrace at all.

There are some generic ptrace helpers:
linux_POST_getregset/linux_PRE_setregset/linux_PRE_getregset/linux_POST_traceme

None of the newer linux ptrace commands are handled though.
For example:

PTRACE_GET_SYSCALL_INFO
PTRACE_SECCOMP_GET_FILTER
PTRACE_SETSIGMASK
PTRACE_GETSIGMASK
PTRACE_PEEKSIGINFO
