It reads ok to me but I don't feel strongly either way.

In your diff, you check for it returning 0, however I note that the
procctl(2) man page does not specify what is returned on success in
the RETURN VALUES section (nor in the PROC_TRACE_CTL section or any
other place I can see):

"""
RETURN VALUES
     If an error occurs, a value of -1 is returned and errno is set to
     indicate the error.

    Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience
usually comes from bad judgement.
