Subject: [-mm][PATCH 1/6] jprobe bugfix and cleanup
Date: Mon, 17 Dec 2007 11:06:37 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <47669E8D.3020305@redhat.com> (raw)
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 *.
