Message-Id: <1448040325-32498-4-git-send-email-chris.j.arges@canonical.com> Date: Fri, 20 Nov 2015 11:25:13 -0600 From: Chris J Arges <chris.j.arges@...onical.com> To: live-patching@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, jpoimboe@...hat.com, jikos@...nel.org, pmladek@...e.com, mbenes@...e.cz Cc: jeyu@...hat.com, Chris J Arges <chris.j.arges@...onical.com>, Seth Jennings <sjenning@...hat.com>, Vojtech Pavlik <vojtech@...e.com>, linux-api@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH 3/3 v8] livepatch: function,sympos scheme in livepatch sysfs directory The following directory structure will allow for cases when the same function name exists in a single object. /sys/kernel/livepatch/<patch>/<object>/<function,sympos> The sympos number corresponds to the nth occurrence of the symbol name in kallsyms for the patched object.
