Subject: [RFC][PATCH v5 41/51] objtool: mcount: Convert nop writes to elf_write_insn()
Date: Thu, 18 Jun 2020 13:38:27 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <b5ee19c9cadd4e786cf64dea893b47b181d80089.1592510545.git.mhelsley@vmware.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1592510545.git.mhelsley@vmware.com>

objtool's elf_write_insn() does extra checking when writing to
an instruction so use that rather than a plain memcpy().
