- Subject: kprobes trampoline_p registration
Hi - I noticed in 2.6.17-rc6 in the i386 kprobes.c the registration of the
trampoline probe in arch_init_kprobes was removed. It looks like that pile of
assembly in kretprobe_trampoline_holder does the clean up instead of using the
regular mechanisms. Any particular reason for this? Should the other arches
consider a similar mechanism?
