[PATCH v5 4/6] arm64: kprobes instruction simulation support

David Long dave.long at linaro.org
Tue Feb 17 15:11:39 PST 2015


From: Sandeepa Prabhu <sandeepa.prabhu at linaro.org>

Kprobes needs simulation of instructions that cannot be stepped
from different memory location, e.g.: those instructions
that uses PC-relative addressing. In simulation, the behaviour
of the instruction is implemented using a copy of pt_regs.

Following instruction catagories are simulated:
 - All branching instructions(conditional, register, and immediate)
 - Literal access instructions(load-literal, adr/adrp)

Conditional execution is limited to branching instructions in
ARM v8. If conditions at PSTATE do not match the condition fields
of opcode, the instruction is effectively NOP. Kprobes considers
this case as 'miss'.

Thanks to Will Cohen for assorted suggested changes.
