Subject: Moving Kprobes and Oprofile to "Instrumentation Support" menu
Date: Wed, 21 Sep 2005 16:11:17 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050921104117.GA5130@in.ibm.com> (raw)
Andrew Morton suggested to move kprobes from kernel hacking menu,
since kernel hacking menu is in-appropriate for the Kprobes. This
patch moves Kprobes and Oprofile under instrumentation menu.
