Greetings, 0day kernel testing robot got the below dmesg and the first bad commit is git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git master commit 003002e04ed38618fc37b92ba128f5ca79d39f4f Author: Masami Hiramatsu AuthorDate: Wed Jun 5 12:12:16 2013 +0900 Commit: Ingo Molnar CommitDate: Thu Jun 20 14:25:48 2013 +0200 kprobes: Fix arch_prepare_kprobe to handle copy insn failures Fix arch_prepare_kprobe() to handle failures in copy instruction correctly. This fix is related to the previous fix: 8101376 which made __copy_instruction return an error result if failed, but caller site was not updated to handle it. Thus, this is the other half of the bugfix. This fix is also related to the following bug-report: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=910649 Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu Acked-by: Steven Rostedt Tested-by: Jonathan Lebon Cc: Frank Ch.
