[patch 3/6] Linux Kernel Markers - Hash Table

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Rewrite of the markers using a hash table as a basic container for the enabled
probes. It permits to first arm a probe and then load modules containing
markers for this probe and still be coherent.

At module load time, each marker is checked for an active probe in the hash
table.
