Introduce FPROBE_FL_KPROBE_SHARED flag for sharing fprobe callback with kprobes safely from the viewpoint of recursion. Since the recursion safety of the fprobe (and ftrace) is a bit different from the kprobes, this may cause an issue if user wants to run the same code from the fprobe and the kprobes. The kprobes has per-cpu 'current_kprobe' variable which protects the kprobe handler from recursion in any case. On the other hand, the fprobe uses only ftrace_test_recursion_trylock(), which will allow interrupt context calls another (or same) fprobe during the fprobe user handler is running. This is not a matter in cases if the common callback shared among the kprobes and the fprobe has its own recursion detection, or it can handle the recursion in the different contexts (normal/interrupt/NMI.) But if it relies on the 'current_kprobe' recursion lock, it has to check kprobe_running() and use kprobe_busy_*() APIs. Fprobe has FPROBE_FL_KPROBE_SHARED flag to do this. If your common callback code will be shared with kprobes, please set FPROBE_FL_KPROBE_SHARED *before* registering the fprobe, like; fprobe.flags = FPROBE_FL_KPROBE_SHARED; register_fprobe(&fprobe, "func*", NULL); This will protect your common callback from the nested call.

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.
