Subject: [PATCHv4 02/13] uprobes/x86: Remove struct uprobe_trampoline object
Date: Tue, 26 May 2026 22:58:29 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260526205840.173790-3-jolsa@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260526205840.173790-1-jolsa@kernel.org>
Removing struct uprobe_trampoline object and it's tracking code,
because it's not needed. We can do same thing directly on top of
struct vm_area_struct objects.
This makes the code simpler and allows easy propagation of the
trampoline vma object into child process in following change.
Note the original code called destroy_uprobe_trampoline if the
optimiation failed, but it only freed the struct uprobe_trampoline
object, not the vma. The new vma leak is fixed in following change.
Acked-by: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@kernel.org>
