Subject: [PATCH 3/3 v7] livepatch: Use the default ftrace_ops instead of REGS when ARGS is available
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2020 12:18:14 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201113171939.455339580@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20201113171811.288150055@goodmis.org

From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>

When CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS is available, the ftrace call
will be able to set the ip of the calling function. This will improve the
performance of live kernel patching where it does not need all the regs to
be stored just to change the instruction pointer.

If all archs that support live kernel patching also support
HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS, then the architecture specific function
klp_arch_set_pc() could be made generic.

It is possible that an arch can support HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_ARGS but
not HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS and then have access to live patching.
