From: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli <ana...@in.ibm.com> On RISC architectures like powerpc, instructions are fixed size. Instruction analysis on such platforms is just a matter of (insn % 4). Pass the vaddr at which the uprobe is to be inserted so that arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() can flag misaligned registration requests.
Changes in V2: Pass (unsigned long)addr instead of (loff_t)vaddr to arch_uprobe_analyze_insn(). We need the loff_t vaddr to take care of the offset of inode:offset pair for large file sizes on 32bit.
