[PATCH v3 5/8] ftrace: Add swap_func to ftrace_process_locs()

Mike Rapoport rppt at kernel.org
Mon Sep 9 16:47:27 AEST 2024


From: Song Liu <song at kernel.org>

ftrace_process_locs sorts module mcount, which is inside RO memory. Add a
ftrace_swap_func so that archs can use RO-memory-poke function to do the
sorting.
