You may try to use subterfugue.sf.net to stress ptrace....

Hi,
A new extended ptrace patch is available at:
http://www.elis.rug.ac.be/~fcorneli/downloads/devel/exptrace-0.3.1.patch.gz
This one has the PTRACE_READDATA, PTRACE_WRITEDATA and PTRACE_DUMPCORE
ptrace requests from SunOS along with faster ptrace_readdata and
ptrace_writedata functions and some other extended ptrace functionality
I need. It's patched against 2.4.19.
Since some people often talked about it, I thought some will like this.
Feedback is very welcome. Please CC me.
Frank.

Do you (or anyone else) have any good tests for this, or even ptrace in
general? I'm working on some ptrace tests for LTP, but if someone
already has something to contribute it would save me some time. :)
Thanks,

Precise tests that can be automated and ran under our test harness are
more along the lines of what I'm looking for. If those features do go
in, it might be nice to have them in LTP if you don't mind.

GDB and gdbserver get a good range of it; just pick a couple of the
standard tests (to avoid problems with all the GDB bugs the testsuite
turns up :). I have some more precise tests but they're for
features that haven't been accepted yet.

No, I mean from GDB's automated regression suite. Build gdb from
source and 'make check' to see it. There's a lot of tests which fail
for reasons you aren't interested in, but a lot of them could just be
incorporated.
