      kallsyms: make KSYM_NAME_LEN include space for trailing '\0' · 9281acea
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      KSYM_NAME_LEN is peculiar in that it does not include the space for the
      trailing '\0', forcing all users to use KSYM_NAME_LEN + 1 when allocating
      buffer.  This is nonsense and error-prone.  Moreover, when the caller
      forgets that it's very likely to subtly bite back by corrupting the stack
      because the last position of the buffer is always cleared to zero.
      
      This patch increments KSYM_NAME_LEN by one and updates code accordingly.
      
      * off-by-one bug in asm-powerpc/kprobes.h::kprobe_lookup_name() macro
        is fixed.
      
      * Where MODULE_NAME_LEN and KSYM_NAME_LEN were used together,
        MODULE_NAME_LEN was treated as if it didn't include space for the
        trailing '\0'.  Fix it.

      powerpc: Merge enough to start building in arch/powerpc. · 14cf11af
      Paul Mackerras 提交于
      This creates the directory structure under arch/powerpc and a bunch
      of Kconfig files.  It does a first-cut merge of arch/powerpc/mm,
      arch/powerpc/lib and arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac.  This is enough
      to build a 32-bit powermac kernel with ARCH=powerpc.
      
      For now we are getting some unmerged files from arch/ppc/kernel and
      arch/ppc/syslib, or arch/ppc64/kernel.  This makes some minor changes
      to files in those directories and files outside arch/powerpc.
      
      The boot directory is still not merged.  That's going to be interesting.

      [PATCH] Return probe redesign: ppc64 specific implementation · 97f7943d
      Rusty Lynch 提交于
      The following is a patch provided by Ananth Mavinakayanahalli that implements
      the new PPC64 specific parts of the new function return probe design.
      
      NOTE: Since getting Ananth's patch, I changed trampoline_probe_handler()
            to consume each of the outstanding return probem instances (feedback
            on my original RFC after Ananth cut a patch), and also added the
            arch_init() function (adding arch specific initialization.) I have
            cross compiled but have not testing this on a PPC64 machine.
      
      Changes include:
       * Addition of kretprobe_trampoline to act as a dummy function for instrumented
         functions to return to, and for the return probe infrastructure to place
         a kprobe on on, gaining control so that the return probe handler
         can be called, and so that the instruction pointer can be moved back
         to the original return address.
       * Addition of arch_init(), allowing a kprobe to be registered on
         kretprobe_trampoline
       * Addition of trampoline_probe_handler() which is used as the pre_handler
         for the kprobe inserted on kretprobe_implementation.  This is the function
         that handles the details for calling the return probe handler function
         and returning control back at the original return address
       * Addition of arch_prepare_kretprobe() which is setup as the pre_handler
         for a kprobe registered at the beginning of the target function by
         kernel/kprobes.c so that a return probe instance can be setup when
         a caller enters the target function.  (A return probe instance contains
         all the needed information for trampoline_probe_handler to do it's job.)
       * Hooks added to the exit path of a task so that we can cleanup any left-over
         return probe instances (i.e. if a task dies while inside a targeted function
         then the return probe instance was reserved at the beginning of the function
         but the function never returns so we need to mark the instance as unused.)

      [PATCH] kprobes: fix single-step out of line - take2 · 9ec4b1f3
      Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli 提交于
      Now that PPC64 has no-execute support, here is a second try to fix the
      single step out of line during kprobe execution.  Kprobes on x86_64 already
      solved this problem by allocating an executable page and using it as the
      scratch area for stepping out of line.  Reuse that.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
