From: Terje Eggestad To: linux-kernel Content-Type: text/plain Organization: Scali AS Message-Id: <1052229679.15887.67.camel@pc-16.office.scali.no> Mime-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Ximian Evolution 1.2.2 (1.2.2-4) Date: 06 May 2003 16:01:20 +0200 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 1059 Lines: 30 For those that kept up with the lastest thread on the EXPORT(syscall_table) saga: The general solution for those that must have syscall traps is of course to change the dest address in the trap gate and the MSR's for syscall/sysenter to trap all system calls before ENTRY(system-call). Remember to do it on all CPU's :-) Cheers TJ -- _________________________________________________________________________ Terje Eggestad mailto:terje.eggestad@scali.no Scali Scalable Linux Systems http://www.scali.com Olaf Helsets Vei 6 tel: +47 22 62 89 61 (OFFICE) P.O.Box 150, Oppsal +47 975 31 574 (MOBILE) N-0619 Oslo fax: +47 22 62 89 51 NORWAY _________________________________________________________________________ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
