Subject: [PATCHv11a 2.6.36-rc2-tip 10/15] 10: tracing: config option to enable both kprobe-tracer and uprobe-tracer.
Date: Fri, 27 Aug 2010 19:40:11 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100827141011.GD5444@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4C76038A.40400@hitachi.com>

Selecting CONFIG_PROBE_EVENTS enables both kprobe-based and
uprobes-based dynamic events. However kprobe-tracer or uprobe-tracer
can still be individually selected or disabled.

Signed-off-by: Srikar Dronamraju <srikar@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
