[PATCH v2] rcu: Avoid stack overflow due to __rcu_irq_enter_check_tick() being kprobe-ed
From: Zheng Yejian
Date: Fri Jan 06 2023 - 02:10:25 EST
Register kprobe on __rcu_irq_enter_check_tick() can cause kernel stack
overflow [1]. This issue can be reproduced by enabling CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL
and boot kernel with argument "nohz_full=" then execute like:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing/
# echo 'p:mp1 __rcu_irq_enter_check_tick' >> kprobe_events
# echo 1 > events/kprobes/enable
It seems __rcu_irq_enter_check_tick() should not be kprobe-ed, so add
it into kprobe blacklist with NOKPROBE_SYMBOL(). This may have less impact
than tagging as 'noinstr' which was discussed but not concluded in
