This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled selftests/ftrace: adjust offset for kprobe syntax error test to the 6.6-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: selftests-ftrace-adjust-offset-for-kprobe-syntax-err.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.6 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 39d945f256a6f36399d5b83b4a0bb1926ff9209b Author: Hari Bathini <hbathini@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Sat Nov 30 01:56:21 2024 +0530 selftests/ftrace: adjust offset for kprobe syntax error test [ Upstream commit 777f290ab328de333b85558bb6807a69a59b36ba ] In 'NOFENTRY_ARGS' test case for syntax check, any offset X of `vfs_read+X` except function entry offset (0) fits the criterion, even if that offset is not at instruction boundary, as the parser comes before probing. But with "ENDBR64" instruction on x86, offset 4 is treated as function entry. So, X can't be 4 as well. Thus, 8 was used as offset for the test case. On 64-bit powerpc though, any offset <= 16 can be considered function entry depending on build configuration (see arch_kprobe_on_func_entry() for implementation details). So, use `vfs_read+20` to accommodate that scenario too.
