Subject: [PATCH 3/3] powerpc/code-patching: don't use the stack for code patching tests
Date: Fri, 26 Nov 2021 13:22:49 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211126032249.1652080-3-npiggin@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211126032249.1652080-1-npiggin@gmail.com>
Use the existing test function for code patching tests instead of
writing to the stack. This means the address verification does not have
to be bypassed for these tests.
