Subject[PATCH -tip v2 0/5] kprobes: Remove BUG_ON from kprobes
Date
Hi,

Here are v2 patches to remove BUG_ON from kprobes.

Since BUG_ON() kills the machine, it must not be used
for debugging or assertion. These patches remove
meaningless BUG_ON or replace it with return errors.

In this version, I updated 5/5 to use WARN_ON_ONCE()
for unusual case, according to Ingo's comment.

Thank you,

kprobes: Remove meaningless BUG_ON from disarming process
kprobes: Remove meaningless BUG_ON from add_new_kprobe
kprobes: Remove meaningless BUG_ON from reuse_unused_kprobe
kprobes: Return error if fail to reuse kprobe instead of BUG_ON
kprobes: Don't call BUG_ON if there is a kprobe in use on free list
