[RFC PATCH -tip v5 13/27] kprobes: Don't check the ->break_handler() in generic kprobes code

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Don't check the ->break_handler() from the core kprobes code,
because it was only used by jprobes which got removed.

( In followup patches we'll remove the remaining calls in low level
  arch handlers as well and remove the callback altogether. )
