This is the second in the series of patches to build out an appropriate kprobes blacklist. This series blacklists system_call() and functions involved when handling the trap itself. Not everything is covered, but this is the first set of functions that I have tested with. More patches to follow once I expand my tests.
OK, btw, have you tested to put kprobes on these functions and saw kernel panic happened?
I have converted many labels into private -- these are labels that I felt are not necessary to read stack traces. If any of those are important to have, please let me know.
At least from the viewpoint of kprobe-blacklist macros, it seems good to me :) Reviewed-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> for this series. Thank you,
