when I modprobe sctp_probe, it failed with "FATAL: ". I found that sctp should load before sctp_probe register jprobe. So I add a sctp_setup_jprobe for loading 'sctp' when first failed to register jprobe, just do this similar to dccp_probe. v2: add MODULE_SOFTDEP and check of request_module, as suggested by Neil Signed-off-by: Wang Weidong <wangweidong1@xxxxxxxxxx> --- net/sctp/probe.c | 17 ++++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 16 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/net/sctp/probe.c b/net/sctp/probe.c index 53c452e..5e68b94 100644 --- a/net/sctp/probe.c +++ b/net/sctp/probe.c @@ -38,6 +38,7 @@ #include <net/sctp/sctp.h> #include <net/sctp/sm.h> +MODULE_SOFTDEP("pre: sctp"); MODULE_AUTHOR("Wei Yongjun <yjwei@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>"); MODULE_DESCRIPTION("SCTP snooper"); MODULE_LICENSE("GPL"); @@ -182,6 +183,20 @@ static struct jprobe sctp_recv_probe = { .entry = jsctp_sf_eat_sack, }; +static __init int sctp_setup_jprobe(void) +{ + int ret = register_jprobe(&sctp_recv_probe); + + if (ret) { + if (request_module("sctp")) + goto out; + ret = register_jprobe(&sctp_recv_probe); + } + +out: + return ret; +} + static __init int sctpprobe_init(void) { int ret = -ENOMEM; @@ -202,7 +217,7 @@ static __init int sctpprobe_init(void) &sctpprobe_fops)) goto free_kfifo; - ret = register_jprobe(&sctp_recv_probe); + ret = sctp_setup_jprobe(); if (ret) goto remove_proc; -- 1.7.12 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-sctp" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
