From 014940bad8e46ca7bd0483f760f9cba60088a3d4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Thu, 3 Apr 2014 20:20:10 +0200 Subject: uprobes/x86: Send SIGILL if arch_uprobe_post_xol() fails Currently the error from arch_uprobe_post_xol() is silently ignored. This doesn't look good and this can lead to the hard-to-debug problems. 1. Change handle_singlestep() to loudly complain and send SIGILL. Note: this only affects x86, ppc/arm can't fail. 2. Change arch_uprobe_post_xol() to call arch_uprobe_abort_xol() and avoid TF games if it is going to return an error. This can help to to analyze the problem, if nothing else we should not report ->ip = xol_slot in the core-file. Note: this means that handle_riprel_post_xol() can be called twice, but this is fine because it is idempotent.
