[PATCH]Fix the order of atomic operations in restore_previous_kprobes on ia64

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

 



From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx>

Fix the order of atomic operations to prevent overwriting prev_kprobe[0].
To pop values from stack, we must decrement stack index right AFTER
reading values.
