From 0b740af1a1697796b5a9a0b024b22b7e97e9bfd2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 24 Nov 2014 17:39:06 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] x86/asm/traps: Disable tracing and kprobes in fixup_bad_iret and sync_regs commit 7ddc6a2199f1da405a2fb68c40db8899b1a8cd87 upstream. These functions can be executed on the int3 stack, so kprobes are dangerous. Tracing is probably a bad idea, too.
