It does seem a _bit_ silly to go to the trouble of converting to 'bool' and then using 0/1 and an 'int' internally instead of true/false and a bool, though. It's also not a horrible thing to add a single line comment to this sucker to say: /* returns true if kprobes handled the fault */ In any case, and even if you don't clean any of this up: Reviewed-by: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com>

Why not just move the x86 version to include/linux/kprobes.h, and replace the int with bool?

I think this description suffers from having been written for v1 of this patch. It describes what you _did_, but it's not what this patch currently _is_. Why not something like: Architectures which support kprobes have very similar boilerplate around calling kprobe_fault_handler(). Use a helper function in kprobes.h to unify them, based on the x86 code. This changes the behaviour for other architectures when preemption is enabled. Previously, they would have disabled preemption while calling the kprobe handler. However, preemption would be disabled if this fault was due to a kprobe, so we know the fault was not due to a kprobe handler and can simply return failure. This behaviour was introduced in commit a980c0ef9f6d ("x86/kprobes: Refactor kprobes_fault() like kprobe_exceptions_notify()") > arch/arm/mm/fault.c | 24 +----------------------- > arch/arm64/mm/fault.c | 24 +----------------------- > arch/ia64/mm/fault.c | 24 +----------------------- > arch/powerpc/mm/fault.c | 23 ++--------------------- > arch/s390/mm/fault.c | 16 +--------------- > arch/sh/mm/fault.c | 18 ++---------------- > arch/sparc/mm/fault_64.c | 16 +--------------- > arch/x86/mm/fault.c | 21 ++------------------- > include/linux/kprobes.h | 16 ++++++++++++++++ What about arc and mips?

Being readable is 100x more important than being compact and being un-compact is only a problem when it hurts readability. For a function like the one in question, having the individual return conditions clearly commented is way more important than saving 10 lines of code.

Fair enough. Will keep the existing code flow from x86.

Well, is there any problem line-breaking the if condition? if (A && B && C && D && E ) Also, if it's used only to decide the return value, maybe would be fine to do somethink like that: return (A && B && C && D && E ); Regards,

Very similar definitions for notify_page_fault() are being used by multiple architectures duplicating much of the same code. This attempts to unify all of them into a generic implementation, rename it as kprobe_page_fault() and then move it to a common header. kprobes_built_in() can detect CONFIG_KPROBES, hence new kprobe_page_fault() need not be wrapped again within CONFIG_KPROBES. Trap number argument can now contain upto an 'unsigned int' accommodating all possible platforms. kprobe_page_fault() goes the x86 way while dealing with preemption context. As explained in these following commits the invoking context in itself must be non-preemptible for kprobes processing context irrespective of whether kprobe_running() or perhaps smp_processor_id() is safe or not. It does not make much sense to continue when original context is preemptible. Instead just bail out earlier. commit a980c0ef9f6d ("x86/kprobes: Refactor kprobes_fault() like kprobe_exceptions_notify()") commit b506a9d08bae ("x86: code clarification patch to Kprobes arch code") Cc: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org Cc: linux-ia64@vger.kernel.org Cc: linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org Cc: linux-s390@vger.kernel.org Cc: linux-sh@vger.kernel.org Cc: sparclinux@vger.kernel.org Cc: x86@kernel.org Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> Cc: Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org> Cc: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Cc: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@c-s.fr> Cc: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Cc: Andrey Konovalov <andreyknvl@google.com> Cc: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Cc: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Cc: Russell King <linux@armlinux.org.uk> Cc: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Cc: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Cc: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com> Cc: Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu@intel.com> Cc: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com> Cc: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Cc: Yoshinori Sato <ysato@users.sourceforge.jp> Cc: "David S.
