No I didn't have the fix. I was running an older kernel actually. One before commit 9da3f2b74054406f87dff7101a569217ffceb29b was added. There's nothing actually wrong with that code, since kprobes is allowed to poke at anything. But that commit considers the kernel using copy from user to poke kernel address space is a security bug. So yeah, I agree your patch should be added with a stable tag, with a Fixes: with that commit, since that commit is what causes it to bug. I'll apply it and start testing it. -- Steve
