[patch 2/2] tracepoint: introduce *_noupdate APIs. (v2)
From: mathieu . desnoyers
Date: Fri Oct 31 2008 - 10:10:47 EST
new APIs separate tracepoint_probe_register(),
tracepoint_probe_unregister() into 2 steps. The first step of them
is just update tracepoint_entry, not connect or disconnect.
this patch introduce tracepoint_probe_update_all() for update all.
these APIs are very useful for registering a lots of probes
but just update once only. and a very important thing is that
*_noupdate APIs do not require module_mutex.
Mathieu Desnoyers : Refreshed for -tip.
