Subject: Re: [PATCH]kprobe handler discard user space trap
Date: Wed, 01 Mar 2006 14:23:02 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <44053DC6.6060209@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20060228113431.GG10512@in.ibm.com>

This patch removes code in kprobe_handler() function which calculates 
user space int3 trap address in i386 architecture. And this patch is 
based on kprobe-handler-discard-user-space-trap.patch, against 
2.6.16-rc5-mm1.
