From: "David A. Long" <dave.l...@linaro.org> This patch series adds basic uprobes support to ARM. It is based on patches developed earlier by Rabin Vincent. That approach of adding hooks into the kprobes instruction parsing code was not well received. This approach separates the ARM instruction parsing code in kprobes out into a separate set of functions which can be used by both kprobes and uprobes. Both kprobes and uprobes then provide their own semantic action tables to process the results of the parsing.
The following are noteworthy changes made for v4: 1) The dependency on kprobe.h is now correctly fixed. 2) A few changes to correctly support bigendian. 3) Remove the opcode address arg from the emulate and simulate functions and just get the address from the pt_regs structure instead. This patchset is based on v3.13-rc4. David A. Long (15): uprobes: allow ignoring of probe hits ARM: move shared uprobe/kprobe definitions into new include file ARM: Move generic arm instruction parsing code to new files for sharing between features ARM: move generic thumb instruction parsing code to new files for use by other feature ARM: use a function table for determining instruction interpreter actions ARM: Remove use of struct kprobe from generic probes code ARM: Use new opcode type in ARM kprobes/uprobes code ARM: Make the kprobes condition_check symbol names more generic ARM: Change more ARM kprobes symbol names to something more ARM: Rename the shared kprobes/uprobe return value enum ARM: Change the remaining shared kprobes/uprobes symbols to something generic ARM: Add an emulate flag to the kprobes/uprobes instruction decode functions ARM: Make arch_specific_insn a define for new arch_probes_insn structure ARM: add uprobes support ARM: Remove uprobes dependency on kprobes Jon Medhurst (Tixy) (1): ARM: Disable jprobes test when built into thumb-mode kernel arch/arm/Kconfig | 3 + arch/arm/include/asm/kprobes.h | 15 +- arch/arm/include/asm/probes.h | 25 + arch/arm/include/asm/ptrace.h | 6 + arch/arm/include/asm/thread_info.h | 5 +- arch/arm/include/asm/uprobes.h | 36 + arch/arm/kernel/Makefile | 7 +- arch/arm/kernel/kprobes-arm.c | 804 ++------------ arch/arm/kernel/kprobes-common.c | 468 +------- arch/arm/kernel/kprobes-test.c | 18 +- arch/arm/kernel/kprobes-thumb.c | 1142 +++----------------- arch/arm/kernel/kprobes.c | 24 +- arch/arm/kernel/kprobes.h | 399 +------ arch/arm/kernel/{kprobes-arm.c => probes-arm.c} | 441 ++------ arch/arm/kernel/probes-arm.h | 72 ++ .../arm/kernel/{kprobes-thumb.c => probes-thumb.c} | 771 ++----------- arch/arm/kernel/probes-thumb.h | 95 ++ arch/arm/kernel/{kprobes-common.c => probes.c} | 215 +--- arch/arm/kernel/{kprobes.h => probes.h} | 91 +- arch/arm/kernel/signal.c | 4 + arch/arm/kernel/uprobes-arm.c | 223 ++++ arch/arm/kernel/uprobes.c | 198 ++++ arch/arm/kernel/uprobes.h | 27 + include/linux/uprobes.h | 1 + kernel/events/uprobes.c | 9 + 25 files changed, 1271 insertions(+), 3828 deletions(-) create mode 100644 arch/arm/include/asm/probes.h create mode 100644 arch/arm/include/asm/uprobes.h copy arch/arm/kernel/{kprobes-arm.c => probes-arm.c} (64%) create mode 100644 arch/arm/kernel/probes-arm.h copy arch/arm/kernel/{kprobes-thumb.c => probes-thumb.c} (56%) create mode 100644 arch/arm/kernel/probes-thumb.h copy arch/arm/kernel/{kprobes-common.c => probes.c} (67%) copy arch/arm/kernel/{kprobes.h => probes.h} (85%) create mode 100644 arch/arm/kernel/uprobes-arm.c create mode 100644 arch/arm/kernel/uprobes.c create mode 100644 arch/arm/kernel/uprobes.h -- 1.8.1.2 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
