Yes, Iam sure. I have tested this patch on all architecture. I have written
the systemtap script which probes all systemcalls and its return values. This
works fine on patched kernel.

As I was concerned with the performance of kretprobes, I don't have figures on
the workload when probes are set. But, currently I have implemented your
cacheline aligned approach and captured this data. Please see below(in the
patch).

Thanks for the suggestion. I have implemented this approach and by looking at
the statistics(attached in the patch), there is slight improvement in
kretprobe performance.

No Andrew, We just replaced old kretprobe_lock code with the new one. Since
kretprobe_lock was also used in arch dependent code, we have modified arch
dependent kprobes.c file.
But code added to kernel.[ch] is very less, 51 lines of code gets added to
kprobes.c(with the new patch, attached below) and this has caused speedup in
performance.

Resending the patch, Again
Currently list of kretprobe instances are stored in kretprobe object (as
used_instances,free_instances) and in kretprobe hash table. We have one
global kretprobe lock to serialise the access to these lists. This causes
only one kretprobe handler to execute at a time. Hence affects system
performance, particularly on SMP systems and when return probe is set on
lot of functions (like on all systemcalls).
Solution proposed here gives fine-grain locks that performs better on SMP
system compared to present kretprobe implementation.
Solution:
1) Instead of having one global lock to protect kretprobe instances
present
in kretprobe object and kretprobe hash table. We will have two locks, one lock
for protecting kretprobe hash table and another lock for kretporbe object.
2) We hold lock present in kretprobe object while we modify kretprobe
instance in
kretprobe object and we hold per-hash-list lock while modifying kretprobe
instances
present in that hash list. To prevent deadlock, we never grab a per-hash-list
lock while holding a kretprobe lock.
3) We can remove used_instances from struct kretprobe, as we can track used
instances of kretprobe instances using kretprobe hash table.
Time duration for kernel compilation ("make -j 8") on a 8-way ppc64 system
with return probes set on all systemcalls looks like this.
