tracing/eprobes: Do not allow eprobes to use $stack, or % for regs
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
While playing with event probes (eprobes), I tried to see what would
happen if I attempted to retrieve the instruction pointer (%rip) knowing
that event probes do not use pt_regs. The result was:

 BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000024

Obviously this is not the desired result.

Move the testing for TPARG_FL_TPOINT which is only used for event probes
to the top of the "$" variable check, as all the other variables are not
used for event probes. Also add a check in the register parsing "%" to
fail if an event probe is used.
