Alexei Starovoitov ff205766db ftrace: Fix function_graph tracer interaction with BPF trampoline
Depending on type of BPF programs served by BPF trampoline it can call original
function. In such case the trampoline will skip one stack frame while
returning. That will confuse function_graph tracer and will cause crashes with
bad RIP. Teach graph tracer to skip functions that have BPF trampoline attached.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
