/hotpatch (Create Hotpatchable Image)

  • Artykuł

Prepares an image for hotpatching.

/hotpatch

Remarks

When /hotpatch is used in a compilation, the compiler ensures that first instruction of each function is two bytes, which is required for hot patching.

After compiling with /hotpatch, you must link with /FUNCTIONPADMIN (Create Hotpatchable Image), which completes the preparation for making an image hotpatchable. When you compile and link an image with a single invocation of cl.exe, /hotpatch implies /functionpadmin.

When building an image that will run on one of the chips in the Itanium Processor Family (IPF), it is not necessary to use /hotpatch, however you should use /functionpadmin on images built for IPF.
