If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let know about it. >>From foo@baz Tue Apr 10 10:31:53 CEST 2018 From: Marcin Nowakowski Date: Thu, 8 Jun 2017 15:20:32 +0200 Subject: MIPS: kprobes: flush_insn_slot should flush only if probe initialised From: Marcin Nowakowski [ Upstream commit 698b851073ddf5a894910d63ca04605e0473414e ] When ftrace is used with kprobes, it is possible for a kprobe to contain an invalid location (ie. only initialised to 0 and not to a specific location in the code). Trying to perform a cache flush on such location leads to a crash r4k_flush_icache_range(). Fixes: c1bf207d6ee1 ("MIPS: kprobe: Add support.")
