From 0f133021bd82548a33580bfb7b055e8857f46c2a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Bristot de Oliveira <bristot@redhat.com> Date: Wed, 12 Jun 2019 11:57:28 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] jump_label: Sort entries of the same key by the code In the batching mode, all the entries of a given key are updated at once. During the update of a key, a hit in the int3 handler will check if the hitting code address belongs to one of these keys. To optimize the search of a given code in the vector of entries being updated, a binary search is used. The binary search relies on the order of the entries of a key by its code. Hence the keys need to be sorted by the code too, so sort the entries of a given key by the code.
