Subject: [PATCH] riscv: blacklist assembly symbols for kprobe
Date: Wed,  4 Oct 2023 15:10:09 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231004131009.409193-1-cleger@rivosinc.com> (raw)

Adding kprobes on some assembly functions (mainly exception handling)
will result in crashes (either recursive trap or panic). To avoid such
errors, add ASM_NOKPROBE() macro which allow adding specific symbols
into the __kprobe_blacklist section and use to blacklist the following
symbols that showed to be problematic:
- handle_exception()
- ret_from_exception()
- handle_kernel_stack_overflow()
