Actually, the first patch is same as that previously I sent to LKML. 2nd-4th patches introduces text reserve functions for avoiding conflictions between alternatives/ ftrace and kprobes. Since alternatives and ftrace can modify fixed small pieces of kernel text, I think those should come before kprobes. Thank you, --- Masami Hiramatsu (4): ftrace: Remove record freezing kprobes: Check probe address is reserved ftrace/alternatives: Introducing *_text_reserved functions [RESEND] kprobes: Disable booster when CONFIG_PREEMPT=y arch/ia64/kernel/kprobes.c | 2 + arch/x86/include/asm/alternative.h | 5 +++ arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c | 16 +++++++++++ arch/x86/kernel/kprobes.c | 5 +++ include/linux/ftrace.h | 7 ++++- kernel/kprobes.c | 33 +++------------------- kernel/trace/ftrace.c | 54 ++++++++++-------------------------- 7 files changed, 52 insertions(+), 70 deletions(-) -- Masami Hiramatsu Software Engineer Hitachi Computer Products (America), Inc.
