Prasanna S Panchamukhi ea32c65cc2 [PATCH] kprobes: Temporary disarming of reentrant probe ... In situations where a kprobes handler calls a routine which has a probe on it, then kprobes_handler() disarms the new probe forever. This patch removes the above limitation by temporarily disarming the new probe. When the another probe hits while handling the old probe, the kprobes_handler() saves previous kprobes state and handles the new probe without calling the new kprobes registered handlers. kprobe_post_handler() restores back the previous kprobes state and the normal execution continues. However on x86_64 architecture, re-rentrancy is provided only through pre_handler(). If a routine having probe is referenced through post_handler(), then the probes on that routine are disarmed forever, since the exception stack is gets changed after the processor single steps the instruction of the new probe. This patch includes generic changes to support temporary disarming on reentrancy of probes.
