Hi, Here is RFC series to use ftrace_regs instead of pt_regs. But this includes the generic part and minimum modifications of arch dependent code. (e.g. not including rethook for arm64.) This series is based on the discussion at https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230801112036.0d4ee60d@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ This has 5 patches, - Simply replace pt_regs in fprobe_entry_handler with ftrace_regs. - Replace pt_regs in rethook and fprobe_exit_handler with ftrace_regs. This introduce a new HAVE_PT_REGS_COMPAT_FTRACE_REGS which means ftrace_regs is just a wrapper of pt_regs (except for arm64, other architectures do this) - Update fprobe-events to use ftrace_regs natively. - Introduce ftrace_partial_regs(). (This changes ARM64 which needs a custom implementation) - Update bpf multi-kprobe handler use ftrace_partial_regs(). Florent, feel free to add your rethook for arm64, but please do not remove kretprobe trampoline yet. It is another discussion point. We may be possible to use ftrace_regs for kretprobe by ftrace_partial_regs() but kretprobe allows nest probe. (maybe we can skip that case?)
