Subject: [PATCH 6/6] ftrace: break out modify loop immediately on detection of error
Date: Thu, 19 Feb 2009 20:13:22 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090220011521.489432611@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20090220011316.379904625@goodmis.org

[-- Attachment #1: 0006-ftrace-break-out-modify-loop-immediately-on-detecti.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 882 bytes --]

From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

Impact: added precaution on failure detection

Break out of the modifying loop as soon as a failure is detected.
This is just an added precaution found by code review and was not
found by any bug chasing.
