Hi,

Here is the 5th version of the series of patches which introduces
IPMODIFY flag for ftrace_ops to detect conflicts of ftrace users
who can modify regs->ip in their handler.

The previous version is here;
 https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/7/28/13

This version is basically an update of previous version to the
latest ftrace tree, and adding a test code to selftest.

Currently, only kprobes can change the regs->ip in the handler,
but recently kpatch is also want to change it. Moreover, since
the ftrace itself exported to modules, it might be considerable
senario.

Here we talked on github.
 https://github.com/dynup/kpatch/issues/47

To protect modified regs-ip from each other, this series
introduces FTRACE_OPS_FL_IPMODIFY flag and ftrace now ensures
the flag can be set on each function entry location. If there
is someone who already reserve regs->ip on target function
entry, ftrace_set_filter_ip or register_ftrace_function will
return -EBUSY. Users must handle that.
The ftrace_ops with IPMODIFY flag requires at least one
entry for filter hash, and its notrace_hash must be empty,
because the IPMODIFY action is very address sensitve and
user must consider the ip address.

The 3rd patch adds a special reservation of IPMODIFY on the
jprobed address, since it is the only user who will change
the regs->ip. Other kprobes do not change it anymore. 

Thank you,

---
