[-mm][PATCH 1/6] jprobe bugfix and cleanup

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch fixes a bug of jprobe and cleans up.
jprobe for x86-64 can cause kernel page fault when the jprobe_return()
is called from incorrect function. Anyway, that path finally invokes
BUG() macro, so this is not so serious.

- Use jprobe_saved_regs instead getting it from stack.
  (Especially on x86-64, it may get incorrect data, because
   pt_regs can not be get by using container_of(rsp))
- Change the type of stack pointer to unsigned long *.
