        The argument PT_ATTACH for ptrace() attaching to a target process is deprecated and has to be replaced by PT_ATTACHEXC. This causes signals (SIGSTOP during attach) from the debuggee to be delivered as Mach exceptions. Modifications would need to be done within SA to handle these. The webrev for the change is at: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jgeorge/8184042/webrev.00/ and the mails wrt this are at: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/serviceability-dev/2017-August/021702.html
