Okay.

Good idea. How about something like below?


struct uprobe_cpu_buffer {
struct mutex mutex;
void *buf;
};
static struct uprobe_cpu_buffer __percpu *uprobe_cpu_buffer;
static DEFINE_MUTEX(uprobe_buffer_mutex);
static int uprobe_buffer_refcnt;

static int uprobe_buffer_init(void)
{
int cpu, err_cpu;

uprobe_cpu_buffer = alloc_percpu(struct uprobe_cpu_buffer);
if (uprobe_cpu_buffer == NULL)
return -ENOMEM;

for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) {
struct page *p = alloc_pages_node(cpu_to_node(cpu),
GFP_KERNEL, 0);
if (p == NULL) {
err_cpu = cpu;
goto err;
}
per_cpu_ptr(uprobe_cpu_buffer, cpu)->buf = page_address(p);
mutex_init(&per_cpu_ptr(uprobe_cpu_buffer, cpu)->mutex);
}

return 0;

err:
for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) {
if (cpu == err_cpu)
break;
free_page((unsigned long)per_cpu_ptr(uprobe_cpu_buffer, cpu)->buf);
}

free_percpu(uprobe_cpu_buffer);
return -ENOMEM;
}

static int uprobe_buffer_enable(void)
{
int ret = 0;

mutex_lock(&uprobe_buffer_mutex);
if (uprobe_buffer_refcnt++ == 0) {
ret = uprobe_buffer_init();
if (ret < 0)
uprobe_buffer_refcnt--;
}
mutex_unlock(&uprobe_buffer_mutex);

return ret;
}

static void uprobe_buffer_disable(void)
{
mutex_lock(&uprobe_buffer_mutex);
if (--uprobe_buffer_refcnt == 0) {
free_percpu(uprobe_cpu_buffer);

}
mutex_unlock(&uprobe_buffer_mutex);
}

static struct uprobe_cpu_buffer *uprobe_buffer_get(void)
{
struct uprobe_cpu_buffer *ucb;
int cpu;

cpu = raw_smp_processor_id();
ucb = per_cpu_ptr(uprobe_cpu_buffer, cpu);

/*
