Adding kprobes on some assembly functions (mainly exception handling) will result in crashes (either recursive trap or panic). To avoid such errors, add ASM_NOKPROBE() macro which allow adding specific symbols into the __kprobe_blacklist section and use to blacklist the following symbols that showed to be problematic: - handle_exception() - ret_from_exception() - handle_kernel_stack_overflow() Signed-off-by: Clément Léger <cleger@rivosinc.com> Reviewed-by: Charlie Jenkins <charlie@rivosinc.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231004131009.409193-1-cleger@rivosinc.com Signed-off-by: Palmer Dabbelt <palmer@rivosinc.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
