    x86: ia32 ptrace vs -ENOSYS · 8ab32bb8
    Roland McGrath authored
    When we're stopped at syscall entry tracing, ptrace can change the %eax
    value from -ENOSYS to something else.  If no system call is actually made
    because the syscall number (now in orig_eax) is bad, then the %eax value
    set by ptrace should be returned to the user.  But, instead it gets reset
    to -ENOSYS again.  This is a regression from the native 32-bit kernel.
    
    This change fixes it by leaving the return value alone after entry tracing.
