Hi,
There might be some symbols defined in asm file, which need to be
prevented for kprobe-ing.
For example, el0_sync, el1_sync, el0_dbg, el1_dbg etc (in
arch/arm64/kernel/entry.S) should be added to the kprobe blacklist
table. How can we do that?

I think, we need to define them under "section .entry.text" and then
to use arch_within_kprobe_blacklist to prevent such symbols from kprobing.

You can port and use _ASM_NOKPROBE(symbol) macro in .S file.
In arch/x86/include/asm/asm.h, it is defined as below.
# define _ASM_NOKPROBE(entry) \
.pushsection "_kprobe_blacklist","aw" ; \
_ASM_ALIGN ; \
_ASM_PTR (entry); \
.popsection
Thank you,
