Subject: Re: [PATCH -tip v3&10 02/18] kprobes: Introduce generic insn_slot

OK, so you end up having one insn slot cache for kprobes and one insn
slot (eventually) for the static jump patching (which needs larger
instruction slots than kprobes). That seems like a good way to ensure
you do not use more memory than necessary.
We could possibly go even further and automatically use the right insn
slot cache given the size of the instruction entry that must be added (a
bit like the memory allocator which have different pools for each
allocation order).
Possibly that using the terminology of "memory pools" rather than
"cache" could be a better fit too. So what this really becomes is an
instruction slot allocator and garbage collector.
Thanks,
Mathieu
