[patch 143/166] samples/hw_breakpoint: drop use of kallsyms_lookup_name()

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

 



From: Will Deacon <will@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: samples/hw_breakpoint: drop use of kallsyms_lookup_name()

The 'data_breakpoint' test code is the only modular user of
kallsyms_lookup_name(), which was exported as part of fixing the test in
f60d24d2ad04 ("hw-breakpoints: Fix broken hw-breakpoint sample module").

In preparation for un-exporting this symbol, switch the test over to using
__symbol_get(), which can be used to place breakpoints on exported
symbols.
