We assume to have only one reference counter for one uprobe. Don't allow user to add multiple trace_uprobe entries having same inode+offset but different reference counter. Ex, # echo "p:sdt_tick/loop2 /home/ravi/tick:0x6e4(0x10036)" > uprobe_events # echo "p:sdt_tick/loop2_1 /home/ravi/tick:0x6e4(0xfffff)" >> uprobe_events bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument # dmesg trace_kprobe: Reference counter offset mismatch. There is one exception though: When user is trying to replace the old entry with the new one, we allow this if the new entry does not conflict with any other existing entries.
