The testcase forks a child process and runs pldd with PID of
this child. On systems where /proc/sys/kernel/yama/ptrace_scope
differs from zero, pldd will fail with
/usr/bin/pldd: cannot attach to process 3: Operation not permitted
This patch checks if ptrace_scope exists, is zero "classic ptrace permissions"
or one "restricted ptrace". If ptrace_scope exists and has a higher
restriction, then the test is marked as UNSUPPORTED.
The case "restricted ptrace" is handled by rearranging the processes involved
during the test. Now we have the following process tree:
-parent: do_test (performs output checks)
--subprocess 1: pldd_process (becomes pldd via execve)
---subprocess 2: target_process (ptraced via pldd)
ChangeLog:
* elf/tst-pldd.c (do_test): Add UNSUPPORTED check.
Rearrange subprocesses.
(pldd_process): New function.
* support/Makefile (libsupport-routines): Add support_ptrace.
* support/xptrace.h: New file.
* support/support_ptrace.c: Likewise.
