From f2aa85a0ccd90110e76c6375535adc3ae358f971 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "bibo,mao" Date: Mon, 2 Oct 2006 02:17:34 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] disallow kprobes on notifier_call_chain When kprobe is re-entered, the re-entered kprobe kernel path will will call atomic_notifier_call_chain function, if this function is kprobed that will incur numerous kprobe recursive fault. This patch disallows kprobes on atomic_notifier_call_chain function.
