Subject: [PATCH -tip v2 0/5] kprobes: Remove BUG_ON from kprobes
Date: Tue, 11 Sep 2018 19:18:43 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <153666112297.21306.4621579144717171778.stgit@devbox> (raw)

Hi,

Here are v2 patches to remove BUG_ON from kprobes.

Since BUG_ON() kills the machine, it must not be used
for debugging or assertion. These patches remove
meaningless BUG_ON or replace it with return errors.

In this version, I updated 5/5 to use WARN_ON_ONCE()
for unusual case, according to Ingo's comment.

Thank you,

---

      kprobes: Remove meaningless BUG_ON from disarming process
      kprobes: Remove meaningless BUG_ON from add_new_kprobe
      kprobes: Remove meaningless BUG_ON from reuse_unused_kprobe
      kprobes: Return error if fail to reuse kprobe instead of BUG_ON
      kprobes: Don't call BUG_ON if there is a kprobe in use on free list
