Subject: [PATCH 2/4] uprobes/powerpc: Do not use arch_uprobe_*_step() helpers
Date: Sun, 28 Oct 2012 18:39:28 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121028173928.GA14649@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20121028173900.GA14621@redhat.com>
No functional changes.
powerpc is the only user of arch_uprobe_enable/disable_step() helpers,
but they should die. They can not be used correctly, every arch needs
its own implementation (like x86 does). And they do not really help
even as initial-and-almost-working code, arch_uprobe_*_xol() hooks can
easily use user_enable/disable_single_step() directly.
Change arch_uprobe_*_step() to do nothing, and convert powerpc to use
ptrace helpers. This is equally wrong, powerpc needs the arch-specific
fixes.
