[PATCH 2/4] x86: kprobe cleanup resume_execution

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

 



This patch cleans up and fixes bugs in resume_execution on x86-64.
Kprobes for x86-64 may cause a kernel crash if it inserted on "iret"
instruction.

"call absolute" case 0x9a is invalid on x86-64, so we don't need
treat it, leave it ifdef X86_32.

 - Add "iret"(0xcf) case.to X86_64
 - Fold jmp absolute (0xea) handling into iret/ret/lret handling

Based on patch from Masami Hiramatsu <[email protected]>
