It feels like comparing apples with oranges here. IMHO, the proper way to unify the two notifiers is a check of the @self parameter. Something like: static int trace_die_panic_handler(struct notifier_block *self, unsigned long ev, void *unused) { if (self == trace_die_notifier && val != DIE_OOPS) goto out; ftrace_dump(ftrace_dump_on_oops); out: return NOTIFY_DONE; } Best Regards, Petr
