X-Git-Tag: v2.6.38-rc1~490^2~45
X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cd7ebe2298ff1c3112232878678ce5fe6be8a15b;p=pandora-kernel.git

kprobes: Use text_poke_smp_batch for optimizing

Use text_poke_smp_batch() in optimization path for reducing
the number of stop_machine() issues. If the number of optimizing
probes is more than MAX_OPTIMIZE_PROBES(=256), kprobes optimizes
first MAX_OPTIMIZE_PROBES probes and kicks optimizer for
remaining probes.

Changes in v5:
- Use kick_kprobe_optimizer() instead of directly calling
  schedule_delayed_work().
- Rescheduling optimizer outside of kprobe mutex lock.

Changes in v2:
- Allocate code buffer and parameters in arch_init_kprobes()
  instead of using static arraies.
- Merge previous max optimization limit patch into this patch.
  So, this patch introduces upper limit of optimization at
  once.
