Implement CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS. It accelerates the call of livepatching. Also note that powerpc being the last one to convert to CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, it will now be possible to remove klp_arch_set_pc() on all architectures.

We need to differentiate between ftrace_caller() and ftrace_regs_caller() here, and only return pt_regs if coming in through ftrace_regs_caller() (i.e., FL_SAVE_REGS is set).Not sure I follow you. This is based on 5740a7c71ab6 ("s390/ftrace: add HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS support") It's all the point of HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, have the regs also with ftrace_caller(). Sure you only have the params, but that's the same on s390, so what did I miss ?It looks like s390 is special since it apparently saves all registers even for ftrace_caller: https://lore.kernel.org/all/YbipdU5X4HNDWIni@osiris/ (local)It is not what I understand from their code, see https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.17-rc3/source/arch/s390/kernel/mcount.S#L37 They have a common macro called with argument 'allregs' which is set to 0 for ftrace_caller() and 1 for ftrace_regs_caller(). When allregs == 1, the macro seems to save more. But ok, I can do like x86, but I need a trick to know whether FL_SAVE_REGS is set or not, like they do with fregs->regs.cs Any idea what the condition can be for powerpc ?
Finally, it looks like this change is done via commit 894979689d3a
("s390/ftrace: provide separate ftrace_caller/ftrace_regs_caller
implementations") four hours the same day after the implementation of
arch_ftrace_get_regs()
They may have forgotten to change arch_ftrace_get_regs() which was added
in commit 5740a7c71ab6 ("s390/ftrace: add HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS
support") with the assumption that ftrace_caller and ftrace_regs_caller
where identical.
