This is completely and totally broken when there is an instruction prefix. Instruction prefixes which occur before the opcodes in the buffer, so buf[0] is not necessarily insn->opcode.bytes[0]. This was immediately obvious when I actually ran this code for the first time, even on hardware without MPX. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
