Subject: [PATCH] perf - ensure offset provided during probe addition is not greater than function length
Date: Fri, 24 Feb 2012 13:11:39 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4F473F33.4060409@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4F45FABE.90104@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
perf probe allows kprobe to be inserted at any offset from a function
start, which results in adding kprobes to unintended location.
(example: perf probe do_fork+10000 is allowed even though size of
do_fork is ~904)
This patch will ensure probe addition fails when the offset specified
is greater than size of the function.
