Subject: [patch 1/1] Allow a jprobe to coexist with muliple kprobes
Date: Thu, 2 Jun 2005 15:16:30 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050602094630.GA1324@in.ibm.com> (raw)

Hi,

Please provide your comments on the patch below. This patch has
been tested on i386 and x86_64 architecture.

Thanks
Prasanna

Presently either multiple kprobes or only one jprobe could be inserted. This
patch removes the above limitation and allows one jprobe and multiple kprobes to
coexist at the same address.
