Subject[PATCH v2 bpf-next 2/2] selftests/bpf: add exception handling selftests for tp_bpf program
Date
Exception handling is triggered in BPF tracing programs when
a NULL pointer is dereferenced; the exception handler zeroes the
target register and execution of the BPF program progresses.

To test exception handling then, we need to trigger a NULL pointer
dereference for a field which should never be zero; if it is, the
only explanation is the exception handler ran. task->task_works
is the NULL pointer chosen (for a new task from fork() no work
is associated), and the task_works->func field should not be zero
if task_works is non-NULL. Test verifies task_works and
task_works->func are 0.
