ftrace_caller() depends on a modified regs->nip to detect if a certain
function has been livepatched. However, with KPROBES_ON_FTRACE, it is
possible for regs->nip to have been modified by the kprobes pre_handler
(jprobes, for instance). In this case, we do not want to invoke the
livepatch_handler so as not to consume the livepatch stack.
To distinguish between the two (kprobes and livepatch), we check if
there is an active kprobe on the current function. If there is, then we
know for sure that it must have modified the NIP as we don't support
livepatching a kprobe'd function. In this case, we simply skip the
livepatch_handler and branch to the new NIP. Otherwise, the
livepatch_handler is invoked.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
