[patch part-II V2 01/13] context_tracking: Ensure that the critical path cannot be instrumented
From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Sun Mar 08 2020 - 19:24:23 EST
context tracking lacks a few protection mechanisms against instrumentation:
- While the core functions are marked NOKPROBE they lack protection
against function tracing which is required as the function entry/exit
points can be utilized by BPF.
- static functions invoked from the protected functions need to be marked
as well as they can be instrumented otherwise.
- using plain inline allows the compiler to emit traceable and probable
functions.
Fix this by adding the missing notrace/NOKPROBE annotations and converting
the plain inlines to __always_inline.
