The following commit has been merged into the perf/urgent branch of tip: Commit-ID: 28f6c37a2910f565b4f5960df52b2eccae28c891 Gitweb: https://git.kernel.org/tip/28f6c37a2910f565b4f5960df52b2eccae28c891 Author: Chen Zhongjin <chenzhongjin@xxxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Mon, 01 Aug 2022 11:37:19 +08:00 Committer: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxxxxx> CommitterDate: Tue, 02 Aug 2022 11:47:29 +02:00 kprobes: Forbid probing on trampoline and BPF code areas kernel_text_address() treats ftrace_trampoline, kprobe_insn_slot and bpf_text_address as valid kprobe addresses - which is not ideal. These text areas are removable and changeable without any notification to kprobes, and probing on them can trigger unexpected behavior: https://lkml.org/lkml/2022/7/26/1148 Considering that jump_label and static_call text are already forbiden to probe, kernel_text_address() should be replaced with core_kernel_text() and is_module_text_address() to check other text areas which are unsafe to kprobe.
