Subject: [PATCH 2/2] x86: Make source of unrecognised MSR writes unambiguous
Date: Mon, 17 Aug 2020 16:24:36 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <df42b70ed20d616d7c2d7f42cd38300115584619.1597677395.git.chris@chrisdown.name> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1597677395.git.chris@chrisdown.name>

In many cases the comm enough isn't enough to distinguish the offender,
since for interpreted languages it's likely just going to be "python3"
or whatever. Add the pid to make it unambiguous.
