Add WaitStatus::PtraceSyscall for use with PTRACE_O_TRACESYSGOOD
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The recommended way to trace syscalls with ptrace is to set the
PTRACE_O_TRACESYSGOOD option, to distinguish syscall stops from
receiving an actual SIGTRAP. In C, this would cause WSTOPSIG to return
SIGTRAP | 0x80, but nix wants to parse that as an actual signal.

Add another wait status type for syscall stops (in the language of the
ptrace(2) manpage, "PTRACE_EVENT stops" and "Syscall-stops" are
different things), and mask out bit 0x80 from signals before trying to
parse it.

Closes nix-rust#550

- Added `cfmakeraw`, `cfsetspeed`, and `tcgetsid`. ([#527](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/527))
- On Linux and Android, added support for receiving `PTRACE_O_TRACESYSGOOD`
events from `wait` and `waitpid` using `WaitStatus::PtraceSyscall`
([#566](https://github.com/nix-rust/nix/pull/566)).

### Changed
- Changed `ioctl!(write ...)` to take argument by value instead as pointer.
