X-Git-Tag: v2.6.25-rc4~8
X-Git-Url: https://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=pandora-kernel.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=b2a5cd6938879b5bcfef0a73c28fea84c49519c2

kprobes: fix a null pointer bug in register_kretprobe()

Fix a bug in regiseter_kretprobe() which does not check rp->kp.symbol_name ==
NULL before calling kprobe_lookup_name.

For maintainability, this introduces kprobe_addr helper function which
resolves addr field.  It is used by register_kprobe and register_kretprobe.
