Do you already have plans to deal with this? As far as I can see, those features can not be fixed simply using kprobes because they are using function arguments. Fortunately we already have trace-events nowadays. So my suggestion is adding trace-events in the target function with required arguments, rewrite user-space tools to use ftrace, and remove the modules. Thank you, -- Masami Hiramatsu
