I have a question on your OPTKPROBE patch:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230127130541.1250865-10-chenguokai17@mails.ucas.ac.cn/

+ if (used_reg == ALL_REG_OCCUPIED) {

  if (rd == 0 || ra == 0) {
  ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
After no opt_used_dst_reg & no free caller-saved register (Of cause,
it's very rare for no available tmp regs):

Why not try:

     0: REG_S  ra, -SZREG(sp)
     4: auipc  ra, ?
     8: jalr   ?(ra)
    12: REG_L  ra, -SZREG(sp)

Besides taking up more instruction slots, does it have other problems?
