[v5][PATCH 1/3] powerpc/kprobe: introduce a new thread flag

From: Tiejun Chen <hidden>
Date: 2012-09-17 09:54:36

We need to add a new thread flag, TIF_EMULATE_STACK_STORE,
for emulating stack store operation while exiting exception.

[v5][PATCH 2/3] powerpc/kprobe: complete kprobe and migrate exception frame

From: Tiejun Chen <hidden>
Date: 2012-09-17 09:54:37

We can't emulate stwu since that may corrupt current exception stack.
So we will have to do real store operation in the exception return code.

Firstly we'll allocate a trampoline exception frame below the kprobed
function stack and copy the current exception frame to the trampoline.
Then we can do this real store operation to implement 'stwu', and reroute
the trampoline frame to r1 to complete this exception migration.

[v5][PATCH 3/3] powerpc/kprobe: don't emulate store when kprobe stwu r1

From: Tiejun Chen <hidden>
Date: 2012-09-17 09:54:38

We don't do the real store operation for kprobing 'stwu Rx,(y)R1'
since this may corrupt the exception frame, now we will do this
operation safely in exception return code after migrate current
exception frame below the kprobed function stack.

So we only update gpr[1] here and trigger a thread flag to mask
this.

Note we should make sure if we trigger kernel stack over flow.

Does this add a statically mispredicted branch to every

Or is there an earlier check for 'unlikely' conditions.

Return usersapce? No, this is just follow 'resume_kernel'.

Note I add this 'unlikely' here since I assume often Kprobe is always disabled 
by default and especially its also rare to kprobe 'stwu' in many kprobe cases.

In fact the srwi can be dropped completely, we can just load r5 with the

I retest to kprobe do_fork() and show_interrupts() with/without enabling
