Subject: [PATCH] tracing/kprobes: Return EADDRNOTAVAIL when func matches
several symbols
When a kprobe is attached to a function that's name is not unique (is
static and shares the name with other functions in the kernel), the
kprobe is attached to the first function it finds. This is a bug as the
function that it is attaching to is not necessarily the one that the
user wants to attach to.
Instead of blindly picking a function to attach to what is ambiguous,
error with EADDRNOTAVAIL to let the user know that this function is not
unique, and that the user must use another unique function with an
address offset to get to the function they want to attach to.

Hi!
Applying the upstream patch leaded to compilation error regarding
kallsyms_on_each_match_symbol().
So, I adapted the patch to use kallsyms_on_each_symbol() instead:
root@vm-amd64:~# uname -a
Linux vm-amd64 5.15.136+ #126 SMP Mon Oct 23 15:18:02 EEST 2023 x86_64 GNU/Linux
root@vm-amd64:~# echo 'p:probe/name_show name_show' > /sys/kernel/tracing/kprobe_events
bash: echo: write error: Cannot assign requested address
As I modified the patch, I would like to get some reviews before it lands in
stable.
