Subject[PATCH] ptrace: clear TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE on ptrace detach
Date
On ptrace_detach(), the TIF_SYSCALL_TRACE in thread->flags of the tracee
is not cleared up. This results in the tracehook_report_syscall_* being
called (though there's no longer a tracer listening to that) upon its
further syscalls.

Example scenario - attach "strace" to a running process and kill it (the
strace) with SIGKILL. You'll see that the syscall trace hooks are still
being called.
