Merge tag 'probes-fixes-v6.7-rc3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace

Pull probes fixes from Masami Hiramatsu:

 - objpool: Fix objpool overrun case on memory/cache access delay
   especially on the big.LITTLE SoC. The objpool uses a copy of object
   slot index internal loop, but the slot index can be changed on
   another processor in parallel. In that case, the difference of 'head'
   local copy and the 'slot->last' index will be bigger than local slot
   size. In that case, we need to re-read the slot::head to update it.

 - kretprobe: Fix to use appropriate rcu API for kretprobe holder. Since
   kretprobe_holder::rp is RCU managed, it should use
   rcu_assign_pointer() and rcu_dereference_check() correctly. Also
   adding __rcu tag for finding wrong usage by sparse.

 - rethook: Fix to use appropriate rcu API for rethook::handler. The
   same as kretprobe, rethook::handler is RCU managed and it should use
   rcu_assign_pointer() and rcu_dereference_check(). This also adds
   __rcu tag for finding wrong usage by sparse.

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.
