From b60a8ad771fd15a1539fe6488bc424bd7dabce2a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Steven Rostedt (Google)" Date: Mon, 21 Nov 2022 10:44:03 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] error-injection: Add prompt for function error injection commit a4412fdd49dc011bcc2c0d81ac4cab7457092650 upstream. The config to be able to inject error codes into any function annotated with ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION() is enabled when FUNCTION_ERROR_INJECTION is enabled. But unfortunately, this is always enabled on x86 when KPROBES is enabled, and there's no way to turn it off. As kprobes is useful for observability of the kernel, it is useful to have it enabled in production environments. But error injection should be avoided. Add a prompt to the config to allow it to be disabled even when kprobes is enabled, and get rid of the "def_bool y". This is a kernel debug feature (it's in Kconfig.debug), and should have never been something enabled by default.
