From f8ac4ec9c064b330dcc49e03c450fe74298c4622 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Wed, 8 Aug 2012 17:11:42 +0200 Subject: uprobes: Introduce MMF_HAS_UPROBES Add the new MMF_HAS_UPROBES flag. It is set by install_breakpoint() and it is copied by dup_mmap(), uprobe_pre_sstep_notifier() checks it to avoid the slow path if the task was never probed. Perhaps it makes sense to check it in valid_vma(is_register => false) as well. This needs the new dup_mmap()->uprobe_dup_mmap() hook. We can't use uprobe_reset_state() or put MMF_HAS_UPROBES into MMF_INIT_MASK, we need oldmm->mmap_sem to avoid the race with uprobe_register() or mmap() from another thread. Currently we never clear this bit, it can be false-positive after uprobe_unregister() or uprobe_munmap() or if dup_mmap() hits the probed VM_DONTCOPY vma. But this is fine correctness-wise and has no effect unless the task hits the non-uprobe breakpoint.
