[PATCH -tip v6 03/22] [BUGFIX] kprobes/x86: Prohibit probing ondebug_stack_*

From: Masami Hiramatsu
Date: Thu Dec 19 2013 - 04:23:23 EST


Prohibit probing on debug_stack_reset and debug_stack_set_zero.
Since the both functions are called from TRACE_IRQS_ON/OFF_DEBUG
macros which run in int3 ist entry, probing it may cause a soft
lockup.

This happens when the kernel built with CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE=y
and CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS=y.
