Next: [PATCH -tip 3/4] kprobes: Check probe address is reserved
From: Masami Hiramatsu on 2 Feb 2010 16:50
Introducing *_text_reserved functions for checking the text address range
is partially reserved or not. This patch provides checking routines for
x86 smp alternatives and dynamic ftrace. Since both functions modify fixed
pieces of kernel text, they should reserve and protect those from other
dynamic text modifier, like kprobes.

This will also be extended when introducing other subsystems which
modify fixed pieces of kernel text. Dynamic text modifiers should
avoid those.
