Subject: [PATCH] Kprobes on select architectures no longer EXPERIMENTAL
Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2007 10:43:35 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070710051335.GA30663@in.ibm.com> (raw)
From: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli <ananth@in.ibm.com>
Based on usage and testing over the past couple of years, kprobes on
i386, ia64, powerpc and x86_64 is no longer EXPERIMENTAL.
This is a follow-up to Robert P.J. Day's patch making "Instrumentation
support" non-EXPERIMENTAL:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=118396955423812&w=2
Arch maintainers for sparc64, avr32 and s390 need to take a similar call.
