Subject: [RFC PATCH -tip v5 00/27] kprobes: Cleanup jprobe implementation
Hello,
Since we decided to remove jprobe from kernel last year,
its APIs are disabled and we worked on moving in-kernel
jprobe users to kprobes or trace-events. And now no jprobe
users are here anymore.
This is the 5th version of the series for removing jprobe.
Previous version is here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/5/28/71
In this version, I just fixed [24/27] patch to remove unneeded
preempt_disable/enabel and cleanup current_kprobe in
kprobe_ftrace_handler on arch/powerpc too.
Also, I added arch-specific mailing lists to Cc but optimize
Cc list for each patch. So only arch related patches are sent
to each mailing list.
BTW, in the previous version I missed RFC on the patch tag...
This time I added it.
Series structure
=====
Basically this series introduces 3 major changes;
- Remove jprobe implementation ([2/27] - [12/27])
- Remove break_handler() related code ([13/27] - [23/27])
This should be done after (or with) removing jprobe
because break_handler is only used by jprobe.
(I'm not so sure, should I merge above patches into one
arch-wide patch as next one does?)
- Clean current_kprobe and enable preempt if pre_handler()
returns !0 ([24/27] and [25/27]<- x86 specific update)
This also depends on above patches because those
current_kprobe and preemption are expected to be adjusted
by jprobe implementation via break_handler.
And some minor changes;
- Document cleanup and update ([1/27], [26/27])
And finally remove jprobe stub APIs and break_handler
from kprobes.h ([27/27]). Of course this depends on
above patches.
Since removing jprobes and break_handler related code
involve archtecture specific changes in some archs,
I splitted it for each arch. But "clean current_kprobe and
enable preempt if pre_handler() returns !0" patch modifies
all architectures, since it changes expected kprobe
handler behavior. I think this would be better done in
one patch for consistency.
Result
=====
I've tested it with kprobe sanity test on x86-64, and arm64
but for other archs, I just did cross-build test.
With this series, we finally cleanup all jprobe code
and break_handler as below.
$ git grep -wi break_handler | wc -l
0
$ git grep -wi jprobe | wc -l
0
Actually, there is one place where mentioning jprobe,
Documentation/kprobes.txt explains jprobe is deprecated
and how to migrate jprobe user to ftrace or kprobe.
I didn't remove it because it might be useful for
some users.
Thank you,
