Subject: [PATCH 3/4] x86/jump-label: Add safety checks to jump label conversions
Date: Wed, 07 Aug 2013 12:49:37 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130807165113.974746364@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20130807164934.149920591@goodmis.org

[-- Attachment #1: 0003-x86-jump-label-Add-safety-checks-to-jump-label-conve.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2681 bytes --]

From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

As with all modifying of kernel text, we need to be very paranoid.

When converting the jump label locations to and from nops to jumps
a check has been added to make sure what we are replacing is what we
expect, otherwise we bug.
