Error check and graceful exit can be done in the jprobe handler
module. In the jprobe network packet logging patch, error check
was taken care by using kallsyms_lookup_name() as shown below.
nt->jp.kp.addr = (kprobe_opcode_t *)
kallsyms_lookup_name(nt->funcname);
if (nt->jp.kp.addr) {
printk("plant jprobe at %s (%p), handler addr %p\n",
nt->funcname, nt->jp.kp.addr, nt->jp.entry);
register_jprobe(&nt->jp);
} else {
printk("couldn't find %s to plant jprobe\n",
nt->funcname);
}.
Please see the patch at the URL for more details.
