Subject: [PATCH][1/2] kprobe: kprobe-booster against 2.6.16-rc1 for i386
Date: Mon, 30 Jan 2006 12:45:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <43DE0A41.8020207@sdl.hitachi.co.jp> (raw)
Hi, Andrew
Here is a patch to clean up kprobe's resume_execute() for i386 arch
against linux-2.6.16-rc1 and also appliable against 2.6.16-rc1-mm4.
Before applying kprobe-booster, I'd like to cleanup codes. It is useful
to simplify (and easy to understand) kprobe-booster patch.
Best Regards,
