36/**
37 * task_current_syscall - Discover what a blocked task is doing.
38 * @target: thread to examine
39 * @callno: filled with system call number or -1
40 * @args: filled with @maxargs system call arguments
41 * @maxargs: number of elements in @args to fill
42 * @sp: filled with user stack pointer
43 * @pc: filled with user PC
44 *
45 * If @target is blocked in a system call, returns zero with *@callno
46 * set to the the call's number and @args filled in with its arguments.
47 * Registers not used for system call arguments may not be available and
48 * it is not kosher to use &struct user_regset calls while the system
49 * call is still in progress. Note we may get this result if @target
50 * has finished its system call but not yet returned to user mode, such
51 * as when it's stopped for signal handling or syscall exit tracing.
52 *
53 * If @target is blocked in the kernel during a fault or exception,
54 * returns zero with *@callno set to -1 and does not fill in @args.
55 * If so, it's now safe to examine @target using &struct user_regset
56 * get() calls as long as we're sure @target won't return to user mode.
57 *
58 * Returns -%EAGAIN if @target does not remain blocked.
59 *
60 * Returns -%EINVAL if @maxargs is too large (maximum is six).
