Subject: [PATCH] kprobes,x86: disable irq durinr optimized callback
Date: Tue, 26 Apr 2011 15:01:31 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1303822891-8450-1-git-send-email-jolsa@redhat.com> (raw)
hi,
attached patch is disabling irqs during optimized callback,
so we dont miss any in-irq kprobes as missed.
Also I think there's small window where current_kprobe variable
could be touched in non-safe way, but I was not able to hit
any issue.
I'm not sure wether this is a bug or if it was intentional to have
irqs enabled during the pre_handler callback.
wbr,
jirka

Interrupts are also disabled during non-optimized kprobes callbacks.
