From aedb60c2c66c82be7cceb89e2b1a0d491bb7ca2f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ingo Molnar Date: Fri, 11 Apr 2025 07:40:26 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] x86/alternatives: Rename 'text_poke_flush()' to 'smp_text_poke_batch_flush()' This name is actually actively confusing, because the simple text_poke*() APIs use MM-switching based code patching, while text_poke_flush() is part of the INT3 based text_poke_int3_*() machinery that is an additional layer of functionality on top of regular text_poke*() functionality. Rename it to smp_text_poke_batch_flush() to make it clear which layer it belongs to. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Cc: Juergen Gross Cc: "H .
