tracing/kprobe: Fix to support kretprobe events on unloaded modules
Fix kprobe_on_func_entry() returns error code instead of false so that register_kretprobe() can return an appropriate error code. append_trace_kprobe() expects the kprobe registration returns -ENOENT when the target symbol is not found, and it checks whether the target module is unloaded or not. If the target module doesn't exist, it defers to probe the target symbol until the module is loaded. However, since register_kretprobe() returns -EINVAL instead of -ENOENT in that case, it always fail on putting the kretprobe event on unloaded modules. e.g. Kprobe event: /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo p xfs:xfs_end_io >> kprobe_events [ 16.515574] trace_kprobe: This probe might be able to register after target module is loaded. Continue. Kretprobe event: (p -> r) /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # echo r xfs:xfs_end_io >> kprobe_events sh: write error: Invalid argument /sys/kernel/debug/tracing # cat error_log [ 41.122514] trace_kprobe: error: Failed to register probe event Command: r xfs:xfs_end_io ^ To fix this bug, change kprobe_on_func_entry() to detect symbol lookup failure and return -ENOENT in that case. Otherwise it returns -EINVAL or 0 (succeeded, given address is on the entry).
