[RFC PATCH v2 1/3] arch/powerpc : Add detour buffer support for optprobes

From: Anju T
Date: Thu May 19 2016 - 11:11:00 EST


Detour buffer contains instructions to create an in memory pt_regs.
After the execution of prehandler a call is made for instruction emulation.
The NIP is decided after the probed instruction is executed. Hence a branch
instruction is created to the NIP returned by emulate_step().

Instruction slot for detour buffer is allocated from
the reserved area. For the time being 64KB is reserved
in memory for this purpose.
