From d04659ac94528e9224dbf1aed37dd11dd952cacc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Huang Shijie Date: Fri, 20 May 2016 17:04:33 -0700 Subject: samples/kprobes: add a new module parameter Add a new module parameter which can be used as the symbol name. Without this patch, we can only test the "_do_fork" function with this kernel module. With this patch, the module becomes more flexible; we can test any functions with this module with # insmod kprobe_example.ko symbol="xxx" Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1463535417-29637-1-git-send-email-shijie.huang@arm.com Signed-off-by: Huang Shijie Cc: Petr Mladek Cc: Steve Capper Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- samples/kprobes/kprobe_example.c | 6 +++++- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'samples') diff --git a/samples/kprobes/kprobe_example.c b/samples/kprobes/kprobe_example.c index 727eb21c9c56..2bb190dee66f 100644 --- a/samples/kprobes/kprobe_example.c +++ b/samples/kprobes/kprobe_example.c @@ -14,9 +14,13 @@ #include #include +#define MAX_SYMBOL_LEN 64 +static char symbol[MAX_SYMBOL_LEN] = "_do_fork"; +module_param_string(symbol, symbol, sizeof(symbol), 0644); + /* For each probe you need to allocate a kprobe structure */ static struct kprobe kp = { - .symbol_name = "_do_fork", + .symbol_name = symbol, }; /* kprobe pre_handler: called just before the probed instruction is executed */ -- cgit v1.2.3
