Subject: [PATCH v4 11/13] lkdtm: Really write into kernel text in WRITE_KERN
Date: Tue, 15 Feb 2022 13:41:06 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <31e58eaffb5bc51c07d8d4891d1982100ade8cfc.1644928018.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1644928018.git.christophe.leroy@csgroup.eu>

WRITE_KERN is supposed to overwrite some kernel text, namely
do_overwritten() function.

But at the time being it overwrites do_overwritten() function
descriptor, not function text.

Fix it by dereferencing the function descriptor to obtain
function text pointer. Export dereference_function_descriptor()
for when LKDTM is built as a module.

And make do_overwritten() noinline so that it is really
do_overwritten() which is called by lkdtm_WRITE_KERN().
