IPMODIFY (livepatch) and DIRECT (bpf trampoline) ops are both important
users of ftrace. It is necessary to allow them work on the same function
at the same time.
First, DIRECT ops no longer specify IPMODIFY flag. Instead, DIRECT flag is
handled together with IPMODIFY flag in __ftrace_hash_update_ipmodify().
Then, a callback function, ops_func, is added to ftrace_ops. This is used
by ftrace core code to understand whether the DIRECT ops can share with an
IPMODIFY ops. To share with IPMODIFY ops, the DIRECT ops need to implement
the callback function and adjust the direct trampoline accordingly.
If DIRECT ops is attached before the IPMODIFY ops, ftrace core code calls
ENABLE_SHARE_IPMODIFY_PEER on the DIRECT ops before registering the
IPMODIFY ops.
If IPMODIFY ops is attached before the DIRECT ops, ftrace core code calls
ENABLE_SHARE_IPMODIFY_SELF in __ftrace_hash_update_ipmodify. Owner of the
DIRECT ops may return 0 if the DIRECT trampoline can share with IPMODIFY,
so error code otherwise. The error code is propagated to
register_ftrace_direct_multi so that onwer of the DIRECT trampoline can
handle it properly.
For more details, please refer to comment before enum ftrace_ops_cmd.
