Subject: [PATCH -tip/urgent 1/2] [BUGFIX]kprobes: set kprobes_all_disarmed earlier to enable re-optimization.
Date: Fri, 23 Jan 2015 15:42:24 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150123064224.30731.30127.stgit@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20150123064217.30731.49156.stgit@localhost.localdomain>
From: Wang Nan <wangnan0@huawei.com>
In original code, the probed instruction doesn't get optimized after
echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/enabled
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/kprobes/enabled
This is because original code checks kprobes_all_disarmed in
optimize_kprobe(), but this flag is turned off after calling that
function. Therefore, optimize_kprobe() will see
kprobes_all_disarmed == true and doesn't do the optimization.
This patch simply turns off kprobes_all_disarmed earlier to enable
optimization.
