Subject: [PATCH 2/7] uprobes: Fold xol_alloc_area() into get_xol_area()
Date: Mon, 31 Dec 2012 18:52:16 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121231175216.GA32091@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20121231175150.GA32066@redhat.com>
Currently only xol_get_insn_slot() does get_xol_area() + xol_alloc_area(),
but this will have more users and we do not want to copy-and-paste this
code. This patch simply moves xol_alloc_area() into get_xol_area() to
simplify the current and future code.
