Subject: Re: [PATCH v4 01/16] powerpc/xmon: Remove store_inst() for patch_instruction()
Date: Mon, 23 Mar 2020 16:19:17 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1584944339.u0isoftv4t.astroid@bobo.none> (raw)

Jordan Niethe's on March 20, 2020 3:17 pm:
> For modifying instructions in xmon, patch_instruction() can serve the
> same role that store_inst() is performing with the advantage of not
> being specific to xmon. In some places patch_instruction() is already
> being using followed by store_inst(). In these cases just remove the
> store_inst(). Otherwise replace store_inst() with patch_instruction().
