From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge Date: Mon, 3 Oct 2011 18:01:46 +0000 (-0700) Subject: jump_label: add arch_jump_label_transform_static() to optimise non-live code updates X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=20284aa77c0f6227da4783a920b72dc61d4bcc09;p=linux-beck.git jump_label: add arch_jump_label_transform_static() to optimise non-live code updates When updating a newly loaded module, the code is definitely not yet executing on any processor, so it can be updated with no need for any heavyweight synchronization. This patch adds arch_jump_label_static() which is implemented as arch_jump_label_transform() by default, but architectures can override it if it avoids, say, a call to stop_machine().
