Syzbot tried to porbe on a kprobe_insn_slot.

kprobe will replace instruciton with a break and store the origin one
on kprobe_insn_slot. However these slots are not in .kprobes.text and
exported by perf_event_ksymbol so can be probed by perf interface.

Probing these slots will triggers kprobe handler inside single step
process and for some architectures such as arm64 this will causes a
bug().

These slots are kprobe process so they should not be probed anyway.
Add kprobe_insn_slot check when register_kprobe to forbid probing on
these slots.
Oops, good catch!

Previously this was not counted as text area, but now the kernel_text_address()
returns true for these trampoline buffers.

In this case, I think kprobes should be limited to probe only
core_kernel_text and module_text.
Can you use is_module_text_address() and core_kernel_text() instead?
Below can allow kprobes probing on other trampolines like ftrace and
bpf.
Also, you may need this tag;

Fixes: 5b485629ba0d ("kprobes, extable: Identify kprobes trampolines as kernel text area")

Thank you,

Thanks for review!
