Sure, I'll look at your comments. Apart from these, I've also found a deadlock between uprobe_lock and mm->mmap_sem. trace_uprobe_mmap() takes these locks in mm->mmap_sem uprobe_lock order but some other code path is taking these locks in reverse order. I've mentioned sample lockdep warning at the end. The issue is, mm->mmap_sem is not in control of trace_uprobe_mmap() and we have to take uprobe_lock to loop over all trace_uprobes. Any idea how this can be resolved?
