Sorry for top-posting/formatting, Do you mean arch_uprobe_skip_sstep() ?
Yes, this __weak is wrong, already fixed in my tree.

It was a surprise to me that declaring an external as weak means that it quietly ignores the fact there is no definition for it at link time, and makes it zero. I think there may be some similar land mines elsewhere in the kernel, unrelated to these changes or uprobes in general. I have an updated version to go out with the v3 patches. It is working with v3.12-rc6 on x86 and ARM, to the extent I'm able to test it. -dl -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
