If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Oleg Nesterov commit 4af4206be2bd1933cae20c2b6fb2058dbc887f7c upstream. syscall_regfunc() and syscall_unregfunc() should set/clear TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT system-wide, but do_each_thread() can race with copy_process() and miss the new child which was not added to the process/thread lists yet. Change copy_process() to update the child's TIF_SYSCALL_TRACEPOINT under tasklist.
