2007-05-08[SPARC64]: Optimize fault kprobe handling just like powerpc.David S. Miller
And eliminate DIE_GPF while we're at it. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-12-10[SPARC64]: Fix several kprobes bugs.David S. Miller
- relbranch_fixup(), for non-branches, would end up setting regs->tnpc incorrectly, in fact it would set it equal to regs->tpc which would cause that instruction to execute twice Also, if this is not a PC-relative branch, we should just leave regs->tnpc as-is. This covers cases like 'jmpl' which branch to absolute values. - To be absolutely %100 safe, we need to flush the instruction cache for all assignments to kprobe->ainsn.insn[], including cases like add_aggr_kprobe() - prev_kprobe's status field needs to be 'unsigned long' to match the type of the value it is saving - jprobes were totally broken: = jprobe_return() can run in the stack frame of the jprobe handler, or in an even deeper stack frame, thus we'll be in the wrong register window than the one from the original probe state. So unwind using 'restore' instructions, if necessary, right before we do the jprobe_return() breakpoint trap. = There is no reason to save/restore the register window saved at %sp at jprobe trigger time. Those registers cannot be modified by the jprobe handler. Also, this code was saving and restoring "sizeof (struct sparc_stackf)" bytes. Depending upon the caller, this could clobber unrelated stack frame pieces if there is only a basic 128-byte register window stored on the stack, without the argument save area. So just saving and restoring struct pt_regs is sufficient. = Kill the "jprobe_saved_esp", totally unused. Also, delete "jprobe_saved_regs_location", with the stack frame unwind now done explicitly by jprobe_return(), this check is superfluous. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2006-07-31[PATCH] IA64: kprobe invalidate icache of jump bufferbibo, mao
Kprobe inserts breakpoint instruction in probepoint and then jumps to instruction slot when breakpoint is hit, the instruction slot icache must be consistent with dcache. Here is the patch which invalidates instruction slot icache area. Without this patch, in some machines there will be fault when executing instruction slot where icache content is inconsistent with dcache.

2006-06-26[PATCH] Notify page fault call chainAnil S Keshavamurthy
With this patch Kprobes now registers for page fault notifications only when their is an active probe registered. Once all the active probes are unregistered their is no need to be notified of page faults and kprobes unregisters itself from the page fault notifications. Hence we will have ZERO side effects when no probes are active.

2006-01-10[PATCH] kprobes: fix build breakageAnanth N Mavinakayanahalli
The following patch (against 2.6.15-rc5-mm3) fixes a kprobes build break due to changes introduced in the kprobe locking in 2.6.15-rc5-mm3. In addition, the patch reverts back the open-coding of kprobe_mutex.

2006-01-10[PATCH] kprobes: arch_remove_kprobeAnil S Keshavamurthy
Currently arch_remove_kprobes() is only implemented/required for x86_64 and powerpc. All other architecture like IA64, i386 and sparc64 implementes a dummy function which is being called from arch independent kprobes.c file. This patch removes the dummy functions and replaces it with #define arch_remove_kprobe(p, s) do { } while(0) Signed-off-by: Anil S Keshavamurthy <anil.s.keshavamurthy@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
2006-01-10[PATCH] kprobes: cleanup include/asm/kprobes.hAnil S Keshavamurthy
The arch specific kprobes.h files never gets included when CONFIG_KPROBES is turned off. Hence check for CONFIG_KPROBES is not appropriate here in this arch specific kprobes.h files. Also the below defined function kprobes_exception_notify() is not needed when CONFIG_KPROBES is off. Compile tested for both CONFIG_KPROBES=y and N.

2005-11-07[PATCH] Kprobes: Track kprobe on a per_cpu basis - sparc64 changesAnanth N Mavinakayanahalli
Sparc64 changes to track kprobe execution on a per-cpu basis. We now track the kprobe state machine independently on each cpu using an arch specific kprobe control block.

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!
