From 2cfa19780d61740f65790c5bae363b759d7c96fa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Masami Hiramatsu Date: Tue, 2 Feb 2010 16:49:11 -0500 Subject: ftrace/alternatives: Introducing *_text_reserved functions 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.
