Subject: [patch 1/3] Kconfig: Introduce CHECKPOINT_RESTORE symbol
Date: Tue, 13 Dec 2011 00:06:43 +0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20111212201715.057471762@openvz.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20111212200642.836001668@openvz.org
[-- Attachment #1: kconfig-add-checkpoint-restore --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1149 bytes --]
In a sake of checkpoint/restore we need auxilary
features being compiled into the kernel, such as additional
prctl codes, /proc/<pid>/map_files and etc...
but same time these features are not mandatory for a
regular kernel so CHECKPOINT_RESTORE config symbol should
bring a way to disable them all at once if one wish to get
rid of additional functionality.

+ Enables additional kernel features in a sake of checkpoint/restore.
+ In particular it adds auxiliary prctl codes to setup process text,
