Subject: [patch 0/2] Sorted seq_file
Date: Sun, 12 Aug 2007 11:08:44 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070812150844.305211039@polymtl.ca> (raw)

Hi Andrew,

I ran in a race regarding seq_file listing of modules. Here is a fix proposed to
get a coherent output even if modules are being unloaded at the same time.

It is needed by the linux kernel markers.

It applies on top of 2.6.23-rc2-mm2 in this order:

seq_file_sorted.patch
module.c-sort-module-list.patch
