Subject: [S390] kprobes breaks BUG_ON
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.21-rc3~3^2~10
X-Git-Url: http://git.cascardo.eti.br/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f794c8279d02ccd69429d816eb03fa12c130d06d;p=cascardo%2Flinux.git

[S390] kprobes breaks BUG_ON

The illegal operation handler calls the die notifier with DIE_BPT to
let kprobes pick up its breakpoint. If kprobes does not find its
breakpoint it returns NOTIFY_STOP instead of NOTIFY_DONE.
Since we use stop_machine_run on s390 to arm/disarm the kprobes
breakpoints the race that kprobe_handler tries to solve by checking
for the kprobes breakpoints does not exist. Removing the check makes
BUG_ON working again.
