| |
Hi Andrew, As many of you know that kprobes exist in the main line kernel for various architecture including i386, x86_64, ppc64 and sparc64. Attached patches following this mail are a port of Kprobes and Jprobes for IA64.
I have tesed this patches for kprobes and Jprobes and this seems to work fine. I have tested this patch by inserting kprobes on various slots and various templates including various types of branch instructions.
I have also tested this patch using the tool http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=111657358022586&w=2 and the kprobes for IA64 works great.
This path depends on http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=111634286225988&w=2 which is in your mm tree.
Here is list of TODO things and pathes for the same will appear soon. 1) Support kprobes on "mov r1=ip" type of instruction 2) Support Kprobes and Jprobes to exist on the same address 3) Support Return probes 3) Architecture independent cleanup of kprobes
I am sending this mail through quilt and looks like the subject line appear to be same on all patches, sorry about that.
Please apply.
Thanks,
