[PATCH 1/7] arm: Add livepatch arch specific code

Tue Dec 6 09:06:01 PST 2016


klp_get_ftrace_location is used by ftrace to get the entry for a
specific function from the mcount list. klp_arch_set_pc is used
to set the pc from the regs passed as an argument to the
ftrace_ops_no_ops function to the starting address of the patched
function. klp_write_module_reloc is not doing anything at this
moment.
