Subject: [patch 2/9] Kprobes - do not use kprobes mutex in arch code
Date: Sun, 12 Aug 2007 11:04:04 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070812150638.780807439@polymtl.ca> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20070812150402.148764478@polymtl.ca
[-- Attachment #1: kprobes-dont-use-kprobes-mutex-in-arch-code.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 5101 bytes --]
Remove the kprobes mutex from kprobes.h, since it does not belong there. Also
remove all use of this mutex in the architecture specific code, replacing it by
a proper mutex lock/unlock in the architecture agnostic code.
