selftests/ftrace: Fix unique symbol check in kprobe_non_uniq_symbol.tcgrafted
The current regex also matches symbols in modules, which makes the
test fail on s390 where name_show is present only once in the kernel,
but also multiple times in modules:
000001b1401cdc20 t name_show
000001b0c05e6c40 t name_show [mdev]
000001b0c0495f30 t name_show [i2c_core]
Fix this by changing the regular expression to only match the function
name.

Commands are sent to the +kernel module by writing to the device, and any data received from the serio +driver is read as-is from the /dev/userio device. All of the structures and +macros you need to interact with the device are defined in <linux/userio.h> and +<linux/serio.h>. + +Command Structure +================= + +The struct used for sending commands to /dev/userio is as follows:: + + struct userio_cmd { + __u8 type; + __u8 data; + }; + +``type`` describes the type of command that is being sent. This can be any one +of the USERIO_CMD macros defined in <linux/userio.h>. ``data`` is the argument +that goes along with the command. In the event that the command doesn't have an +argument, this field can be left untouched and will be ignored by the kernel. +Each command should be sent by writing the struct directly to the character +device. In the event that the command you send is invalid, an error will be +returned by the character device and a more descriptive error will be printed +to the kernel log. Only one command can be sent at a time, any additional data +written to the character device after the initial command will be ignored. + +To close the virtual serio port, just close /dev/userio. + +Commands +======== + +USERIO_CMD_REGISTER +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Registers the port with the serio driver and begins transmitting data back and +forth. Registration can only be performed once a port type is set with +USERIO_CMD_SET_PORT_TYPE. Has no argument. + +USERIO_CMD_SET_PORT_TYPE +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Sets the type of port we're emulating, where ``data`` is the port type being +set. Can be any of the serio type macros from <linux/serio.h>. For example: +SERIO_8042 would set the port type to be a normal PS/2 port. + +USERIO_CMD_SET_PORT_PROTO +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Sets the protocol of port we're emulating, where ``data`` is the protocol being +set. Can be any of the serio proto macros from <linux/serio.h>. For example: +SERIO_IFORCE would set the port type to be an I-Force serial joystick. + +USERIO_CMD_SET_PORT_ID +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Sets the ``id`` value on the identification of port we're emulating, where +``data`` is the value being set. + +USERIO_CMD_SET_PORT_EXTRA +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Sets the ``extra`` value on the identification of port we're emulating, where +``data`` is the value being set. + +USERIO_CMD_SEND_INTERRUPT +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Sends an interrupt through the virtual serio port to the serio driver, where +``data`` is the interrupt data being sent. + +Userspace tools +=============== + +The userio userspace tools are able to record PS/2 devices using some of the +debugging information from i8042, and play back the devices on /dev/userio. The +latest version of these tools can be found at: + + https://github.com/Lyude/ps2emu |
