Masami Hiramatsu 34e1ceb188 [IA64] kprobes: kprobe-booster for ia64
Add kprobe-booster support on ia64.

Kprobe-booster improves the performance of kprobes by eliminating single-step,
where possible.  Currently, kprobe-booster is implemented on x86 and x86-64.
This is an ia64 port.

On ia64, kprobe-booster executes a copied bundle directly, instead of single
stepping.  Bundles which have B or X unit and which may cause an exception
(including break) are not executed directly.  And also, to prevent hitting
break exceptions on the copied bundle, only the hindmost kprobe is executed
directly if several kprobes share a bundle and are placed in different slots.
Note: set_brl_inst() is used for preparing an instruction buffer(it does not
modify any active code), so it does not need any atomic operation.

Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli 9edddaa200 Kprobes: indicate kretprobe support in Kconfig
Add CONFIG_HAVE_KRETPROBES to the arch/<arch>/Kconfig file for relevant
architectures with kprobes support.  This facilitates easy handling of
in-kernel modules (like samples/kprobes/kretprobe_example.c) that depend on
kretprobes being present in the kernel.

Thanks to Sam Ravnborg for helping make the patch more lean.

Per Mathieu's suggestion, added CONFIG_KRETPROBES and fixed up dependencies.

Masami Hiramatsu f438d914b2 kprobes: support kretprobe blacklist
Introduce architecture dependent kretprobe blacklists to prohibit users
from inserting return probes on the function in which kprobes can be
inserted but kretprobes can not.

This patch also removes "__kprobes" mark from "__switch_to" on x86_64 and
registers "__switch_to" to the blacklist on x86-64, because that mark is to
prohibit user from inserting only kretprobe.

Christoph Hellwig 74a0b57627 x86: optimize page faults like all other achitectures and kill notifier cruft
x86(-64) are the last architectures still using the page fault notifier
cruft for the kprobes page fault hook.  This patch converts them to the
proper direct calls, and removes the now unused pagefault notifier bits
aswell as the cruft in kprobes.c that was related to this mess.

I know Andi didn't really like this, but all other architecture maintainers
agreed the direct calls are much better and besides the obvious cruft
removal a common way of dealing with kprobes across architectures is
important aswell.

Anil S Keshavamurthy cdc7dbdfe6 [IA64] fix Kprobes reentrancy
In case of reentrance i.e when a probe handler calls a functions which
inturn has a probe, we save a previous kprobe information and just single
step the reentrant probe without calling the actual probe handler.  During
this reentracy period, if an interrupt occurs and if probe happens to
trigger in the inturrupt path, then we were corrupting the previous kprobe(
as we were overriding the previous kprobe info) info their by crashing the
system.  This patch fixes this issues by having a an array of previous
kprobe info struct(with the array size of 2).

This similar technique is not needed on i386 and x86_64 because by default
interrupts are turn off in the break/int3 exception handler.

Tony Luck 08ed38b680 [IA64] enable trap code on slot 1
Because slot 1 of one instr bundle crosses border of two consecutive
8-bytes, kprobe on slot 1 is disabled. This patch enables kprobe on
slot1, it only replaces higher 8-bytes of the instruction bundle and
changes the exception code to ignore the low 12 bits of the break
number (which is across the border in the lower 8-bytes of the bundle).

For those instructions which must execute regardless qp bits,
kprobe on slot 1 is still disabled.

Rusty Lynch 9508dbfe39 [PATCH] Return probe redesign: ia64 specific implementation
The following patch implements function return probes for ia64 using
the revised design.  With this new design we no longer need to do some
of the odd hacks previous required on the last ia64 return probe port
that I sent out for comments.

Note that this new implementation still does not resolve the problem noted
by Keith Owens where backtrace data is lost after a return probe is hit.

Changes include:
 * Addition of kretprobe_trampoline to act as a dummy function for instrumented
   functions to return to, and for the return probe infrastructure to place
   a kprobe on on, gaining control so that the return probe handler
   can be called, and so that the instruction pointer can be moved back
   to the original return address.
 * Addition of arch_init(), allowing a kprobe to be registered on
   kretprobe_trampoline
 * Addition of trampoline_probe_handler() which is used as the pre_handler
   for the kprobe inserted on kretprobe_implementation.  This is the function
   that handles the details for calling the return probe handler function
   and returning control back at the original return address
 * Addition of arch_prepare_kretprobe() which is setup as the pre_handler
   for a kprobe registered at the beginning of the target function by
   kernel/kprobes.c so that a return probe instance can be setup when
   a caller enters the target function.  (A return probe instance contains
   all the needed information for trampoline_probe_handler to do it's job.)
 * Hooks added to the exit path of a task so that we can cleanup any left-over
   return probe instances (i.e. if a task dies while inside a targeted function
   then the return probe instance was reserved at the beginning of the function
   but the function never returns so we need to mark the instance as unused.)

Anil S Keshavamurthy 1674eafcbd [PATCH] Kprobes IA64: cmp ctype unc support
The current Kprobes when patching the original instruction with the break
instruction tries to retain the original qualifying predicate(qp), however
for cmp.crel.ctype where ctype == unc, which is a special instruction
always needs to be executed irrespective of qp.  Hence, if the instruction
we are patching is of this type, then we should not copy the original qp to
the break instruction, this is because we always want the break fault to
happen so that we can emulate the instruction.

This patch is based on the feedback given by David Mosberger

Rusty Lynch 8bc76772ad [PATCH] Kprobes ia64 cleanup
A cleanup of the ia64 kprobes implementation such that all of the bundle
manipulation logic is concentrated in arch_prepare_kprobe().

With the current design for kprobes, the arch specific code only has a
chance to return failure inside the arch_prepare_kprobe() function.

This patch moves all of the work that was happening in arch_copy_kprobe()
and most of the work that was happening in arch_arm_kprobe() into
arch_prepare_kprobe().  By doing this we can add further robustness checks
in arch_arm_kprobe() and refuse to insert kprobes that will cause problems.
