From: Andi Kleen Date: Wed, 20 Jun 2007 10:23:35 +0000 (+0200) Subject: x86: Disable KPROBES with DEBUG_RODATA for now X-Git-Tag: v2.6.22-rc6~76 X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=55181000cd60334fe920c65ffbcdfe0e3f1de406;p=linux-2.6 x86: Disable KPROBES with DEBUG_RODATA for now Right now Kprobes cannot write to the write protected kernel text when DEBUG_RODATA is enabled. Disallow this in Kconfig for now. Temporary fix for 2.6.22. In .23 add code to temporarily unprotect it.
