[IA64] adding parameter check to module_free()
module_free() refers the first parameter before checking. But it is called like below(in kernel/kprobes). The first parameter is always NULL. This happens when many probe points(>1024) are set by kprobes. I encountered this with using SystemTap. It can set many probes easily. static int __kprobes collect_one_slot(struct kprobe_insn_page *kip, int idx) { ... if (kip->nused == 0) { hlist_del(&kip->hlist); if (hlist_empty(&kprobe_insn_pages)) { ... } else { module_free(NULL, kip->insns); //<<< 1st param always NULL kfree(kip); } return 1; } return 0; } Signed-off-by: Akiyama, Nobuyuki <akiyama.nobuyuk@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
