From 2f59be5b970b503ca8db1cb723b155e455ebac8e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Naveen N. Rao" Date: Wed, 19 Apr 2017 18:22:24 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/ftrace: Restore LR from pt_regs Pass the real LR to the ftrace handler. This is needed for KPROBES_ON_FTRACE for the pre handlers. Also, with KPROBES_ON_FTRACE, the link register may be updated by the pre handlers or by a registed kretprobe. Honor updated LR by restoring it from pt_regs, rather than from the stack save area. Live patch and function graph continue to work fine with this change. Signed-off-by: Naveen N.
