Does that solve the problem completely?  We would need to treat

It does seem solve a bulk of the problem (particularly excluding sys_execve). So far those are the "noreturn" system calls (they 're also tearing down task) that we know of.

By policy, you mean code that blacklists certain functions from
probing?  I was holding off until results from jkenisto's bug #1235
were collected.



Yes, put them on the blacklist.
