Subject: [PATCH] kprobes: fix unloading of self probed module
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=df019b1d8b893d0f0ee5a9b0f71486f0892561ae;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

[PATCH] kprobes: fix unloading of self probed module

When a kprobes modules is written in such a way that probes are inserted on
itself, then unload of that moudle was not possible due to reference
couning on the same module.

The below patch makes a check and incrementes the module refcount only if
it is not a self probed module.

We need to allow modules to probe themself for kprobes performance
measurements

This patch has been tested on several x86_64, ppc64 and IA64 architectures.
