There has been some work at Linaro.org to include uprobes in the arm kernel:

  https://blueprints.launchpad.net/linux-linaro/+spec/arm-uprobes

I built a local version of a the uprobes branch kernel with uprobes enabled from:

  https://git.linaro.org/gitweb?p=people/davelong/linux.git;a=summary


The tests took several hours on a samsung arm chromebook 



		=== systemtap Summary ===

# of expected passes		3011
# of unexpected failures	168
# of expected failures		283
# of known failures		40
# of untested testcases		179
# of unsupported tests		4

The complete results are posted on dejazilla:

I didn't see any regressions in a comparison between a stock linux-3.11 vs. the linux-3.11-rc5 with uprobes on the same arm machine:
