From bd0b90676c30fe640e7ead919b3e38846ac88ab7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Masami Hiramatsu Date: Wed, 29 Mar 2017 13:56:56 +0900 Subject: [PATCH] kprobes/x86: Fix kprobe-booster not to boost far call instructions Fix the kprobe-booster not to boost far call instruction, because a call may store the address in the single-step execution buffer to the stack, which should be modified after single stepping. Currently, this instruction will be filtered as not boostable in resume_execution(), so this is not a critical issue.
