[PATCH v10 3/9] arm64: add copy_to/from_user to kprobes blacklist

From: David Long <hidden>
Date: 2016-03-01 03:00:39
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), the rest · Maintainers: Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Linus Torvalds

From: "David A. Long" <redacted>

Currrently taking exceptions when accessing user data from a kprobe'd
instruction doesn't work. Avoid this situation by blacklisting the relevant
functions.

Signed-off-by: David A. Long <redacted>
