[RFC PATCH V2 10/10] arm64: uprobes: check conditions before simulating instructions
From: Pratyush Anand
Date: Thu Jun 18 2015 - 00:00:43 EST
From: Steve Capper <steve.capper@xxxxxxxxxx>
Currently uprobes just simulates any instruction that it can't in
place execute. This can lead to unpredictable behaviour if the
execution condition fails and the instruction wouldn't otherwise
have been executed.
This patch adds the condition check
