[PATCH 7/7] uprobes: _register() should always doregister_for_each_vma(true)

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Fri Nov 23 2012 - 15:28:15 EST


To support the filtering uprobe_register() should do
register_for_each_vma(true) every time the new consumer comes,
we need to install the previously nacked breakpoints.

Note:
- uprobes_mutex[] should die, what is actually protects is
alloc_uprobe().

- UPROBE_RUN_HANDLER should die too, obviously it can't work
unless uprobe has a single consumer. The consumer should
serialize with _register/_unregister itself. Or this flag
should live in uprobe_consumer->state.

- Perhaps we can do some optimizations later. For example, if
filter_chain() never returns false uprobe can record this
fact and avoid the unnecessary register_for_each_vma().
