From 0864a4e201b1ea442f4c8b887418a29f67e24d30 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arjan van de Ven Date: Wed, 20 Jun 2007 22:23:21 -0700 Subject: Allow DEBUG_RODATA and KPROBES to co-exist Do not mark the kernel text read only if KPROBES is in the kernel; kprobes needs to hot-patch the kernel text to insert it's instrumentation. In this case, only mark the .rodata segment as read only. Signed-off-by: Arjan van de Ven Tested-by: S. P.
