Shouldn't we check uprobe != NULL before we check the uprobe->flags ?
i.e, shouldn't the above line be :
if (uprobe && ! (uprobe->flags & UPROBE_SKIP_SSTEP)) ?
The function starts like this:
if (!uprobe) {
if (is_swbp > 0) {
send_sig(SIGTRAP, current, 0);
} else {
instruction_pointer_set(regs, bp_vaddr);
}
return;
}
Which makes uprobe != NULL by the time we get there, no?
