Subject: [PATCH] kretprobe instance recycled by parent process
Date: Wed, 15 Feb 2006 18:42:34 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <43F3059A.9070601@linux.intel.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 6335 bytes --]

When kretprobe probe schedule() function, if probed process exit then 
schedule() function will never return, so some kretprobe instance will 
never be recycled. By this patch the parent process will recycle 
retprobe instance of probed function, there will be no memory leak of 
kretprobe instance. This patch is based on 2.6.16-rc3.
