2007-12-18x86: jprobe bugfixMasami Hiramatsu1-1/+1
jprobe for x86-64 may cause kernel page fault when the jprobe_return() is called from incorrect function. - Use jprobe_saved_regs instead getting it from stack. (Especially on x86-64, it may get incorrect data, because pt_regs can not be get by using container_of(rsp)) - Change the type of stack pointer to unsigned long *.

2007-10-16kprobes: support kretprobe blacklistMasami Hiramatsu1-0/+2
Introduce architecture dependent kretprobe blacklists to prohibit users from inserting return probes on the function in which kprobes can be inserted but kretprobes can not. This patch also removes "__kprobes" mark from "__switch_to" on x86_64 and registers "__switch_to" to the blacklist on x86-64, because that mark is to prohibit user from inserting only kretprobe.

2007-10-16x86: optimize page faults like all other achitectures and kill notifier cruftChristoph Hellwig1-1/+1
x86(-64) are the last architectures still using the page fault notifier cruft for the kprobes page fault hook. This patch converts them to the proper direct calls, and removes the now unused pagefault notifier bits aswell as the cruft in kprobes.c that was related to this mess. I know Andi didn't really like this, but all other architecture maintainers agreed the direct calls are much better and besides the obvious cruft removal a common way of dealing with kprobes across architectures is important aswell.
