It appears that the kprobe_optimizer work thread call happened after
the init pages were freed, causing alternative.c to give the above
warning because the text that is being unoptimized happens to no longer
exist.
This doesn't always happen, but it may have been something that's been
there for a while. Can you take a look at it, and perhaps find a way to
flush the work queue before exiting the kprobe test?
Thanks!

Ah, I see. I need to check that case. Actually for the module
init text area, kill_kprobe() correctly kicks kill_optimized_kprobe()
so it should safe. But above case is on the init-text in kernel
itself. I guess module_notifier may not be called for that area...

I see, since it depends on the timing when the thread is kicked.

Yes, I must handle it.

Hmm, what happens if you add a kprobe to a module, remove it, and then
remove the module. If the module is still loaded when it is removed,
wouldn't that cause the optimized probe to be delayed? Wouldn't that
open a race where the optimizer work queue can be called when no module
exists?

In that case the kprobe will be removed before unloading the module.
If the kprobe is optimized, the optimized probe itself is queued
to unoptimize.
> If the module is still loaded when it is removed,
> wouldn't that cause the optimized probe to be delayed?
Yes, it is queued, but before unloading module, it should be
dequeued forcibly by kill_optimized_kprobe() from module-notifier.

> exists?
Since both kprobe_mutex and module_mutex are held in optimizer,
I couldn't think there is such race. I guess when the kernel's
init-text (not module's one) is freed, it doesn't kick the
module notifier and kprobes missed that.
Thank you,
