Subject: [Bug kprobes/2294] current.stp causes NX protection fault on i686 SMP
Date: Thu, 09 Feb 2006 03:22:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060209032230.20428.qmail@sourceware.org> (raw)

------- Additional Comments From bibo dot mao at intel dot com  2006-02-09 03:22 -------
In RHEL4-U3 beta 2.6.9-30 version, kernel configuration CONFIG_X86_PAE set as 
N, and then current.stp will pass. Can you verify this in 2.6.14-
1.1656_FC4smp.i686  kernel version? 

_PAGE_NX is different by CONFIG_X86_PAE option, if PAE is enable, kprobe probed 
instruction should be placed in module_alloc() area, but no kprobe stucture. 
That is to say, arch_specific_insn structure should be defined as
struct arch_specific_insn {
	/* copy of the original instruction */
	kprobe_opcode_t *insn;
};
And instruction slot allocation/free will be same with x86_64 architecture.
