Subject: [PATCH] Kprobes - x86_64 add KPROBE_END macro for .popsection
Date: Thu, 17 Aug 2006 22:44:05 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060817171405.GA7973@in.ibm.com> (raw)

This patch replace .popsection with the KPROBE_END() macro, as
suggested by Jan Beulich similar to i386 architecture. This will
be helpful for the conversions ike the recent .section -> .pushsection
and .previous -> .popsection to be confined to the header defining
these macros, without need to touch any assembly files.
