2009-08-30kprobes: Fix to add __kprobes to notify_dieMasami Hiramatsu
Add __kprobes to notify_die() because do_int3() calls notify_die() instead of atomic_notify_call_chain() which is already marked as __kprobes.

2008-10-14ftrace: ignore functions that cannot be kprobe-edIngo Molnar
kprobes already has an extensive list of annotations for functions that should not be instrumented. Add notrace annotations to these functions as well. This is particularly useful for functions called by the NMI path. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

2008-09-10debug: add notifier chain debuggingArjan van de Ven
during some development we suspected a case where we left something in a notifier chain that was from a module that was unloaded already... and that sort of thing is rather hard to track down. This patch adds a very simple sanity check (which isn't all that expensive) to make sure the notifier we're about to call is actually from either the kernel itself of from a still-loaded module, avoiding a hard-to-chase-down crash.

2008-04-29ipc: re-enable msgmni automatic recomputing msgmni if set to negativeNadia Derbey
The enhancement as asked for by Yasunori: if msgmni is set to a negative value, register it back into the ipcns notifier chain. A new interface has been added to the notification mechanism: notifier_chain_cond_register() registers a notifier block only if not already registered. With that new interface we avoid taking care of the states changes in procfs.

2007-10-19Add kernel/notifier.cAlexey Dobriyan
There is separate notifier header, but no separate notifier .c file. Extract notifier code out of kernel/sys.c which will remain for misc syscalls I hope. Merge kernel/die_notifier.c into kernel/notifier.c.
