Hi, Here is 4th version of the patches to fix kprobes and optprobe with CONFIG_RETHUNK and CONFIG_SLS. Previous version is here; https://lore.kernel.org/all/166264927154.775585.16570756675363838701.stgit@devnote2/ I just ported the v3 on the latest -tip tree. With CONFIG_RETHUNK/CONFIG_SLS and after many efforts, the kernel functions may includes INT3 for stopping speculative execution in the function code block (body) in addition to the gaps between functions. Since kprobes on x86 has to ensure the probe address is an instruction bondary, it decodes the instructions in the function until the address. If it finds an INT3 which is not embedded by kprobe, it stops decoding because usually the INT3 is used for debugging as a software breakpoint and such INT3 will replace the first byte of an original instruction. Thus the kprobes returns -EILSEQ as below. # echo 'p:probe/resched_curr_L21 resched_curr+98' >> dynamic_events sh: write error: Invalid or incomplete multibyte or wide character Actually, such INT3 can be ignored except the INT3 installed dynamically by kgdb. To avoid this issue, just check whether the INT3 is owned by kgdb or not and if so, it just stopped and return failure. With thses fixes, kprobe and optprobe can probe the kernel again with CONFIG_RETHUNK=y.
