From 067bce1a06c1f84146f873a598cd7c3a28eee1d5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cyrill Gorcunov Date: Thu, 12 Jan 2012 17:20:49 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] c/r: introduce CHECKPOINT_RESTORE symbol For checkpoint/restore we need auxilary features being compiled into the kernel, such as additional prctl codes, /proc//map_files and etc... but same time these features are not mandatory for a regular kernel so CHECKPOINT_RESTORE config symbol should bring a way to disable them all at once if one wish to get rid of additional functionality.
