    kprobes: Introduce NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() macro to maintain kprobes blacklist · 376e2424
    Masami Hiramatsu authored
    Introduce NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() macro which builds a kprobes
    blacklist at kernel build time.
    
    The usage of this macro is similar to EXPORT_SYMBOL(),
    placed after the function definition:
    
      NOKPROBE_SYMBOL(function);
    
    Since this macro will inhibit inlining of static/inline
    functions, this patch also introduces a nokprobe_inline macro
    for static/inline functions. In this case, we must use
    NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() for the inline function caller.
    
    When CONFIG_KPROBES=y, the macro stores the given function
    address in the "_kprobe_blacklist" section.
    
    Since the data structures are not fully initialized by the
    macro (because there is no "size" information),  those
    are re-initialized at boot time by using kallsyms.
