Once you open that > door, everyone will have it. What about having KVM define the stable tracepoints in the built-in part of the kernel, if CONFIG_KVM is Y or M, and then export the tracepoints, such that the tracepoints can be called from a module? That way the tracepoints aren't being *defined* in a module, they are just being *called* from the module. Does that seem like a reasonable compromise? - Ted -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
