[PATCH -tip ] [BUGFIX] kprobes: Move hash_64() into .text.kprobesection

From: Masami Hiramatsu
Date: Mon Mar 11 2013 - 10:25:03 EST


Beacuse hash_64() is called from the get_kprobe() inside
int3 handler, kernel causes int3 recursion and crashes if
kprobes user puts a probe on it.

Usually hash_64() is inlined into caller function, but in
some cases, it has instances by gcc's interprocedural
constant propagation.

This patch adds __kprobes tag on the hash_64() and moves
all those instances into .text.kprobe section so that
kprobes can refuse probing on the instances.

I've ensured that all hash_64 instances moves to the
address between __kprobes_text_start and __kprobes_text_end
with this patch as below.

ffffffff8138bea0 T __kprobes_text_start
ffffffff8138bec0 t hash_64.constprop.8
ffffffff8138ef98 t hash_64.constprop.26
ffffffff8138efae t hash_64
ffffffff8138f066 t hash_64.constprop.43
ffffffff8138f649 t hash_64.constprop.25
ffffffff8139103a t hash_64.constprop.77
ffffffff81391050 t hash_64.constprop.24
ffffffff81391066 t hash_64.constprop.40
ffffffff8139107c t hash_64.constprop.15
ffffffff81391092 T __kprobes_text_end
