linux-toradex.git/tools/include/linux/objtool.h, branch v5.12-rc5 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules objtool: Combine UNWIND_HINT_RET_OFFSET and UNWIND_HINT_FUNC 2021-01-26T17:12:00+00:00 Josh Poimboeuf jpoimboe@redhat.com 2021-01-21T21:29:24+00:00 b735bd3e68824316655252a931a3353a6ebc036f The ORC metadata generated for UNWIND_HINT_FUNC isn't actually very func-like. With certain usages it can cause stack state mismatches because it doesn't set the return address (CFI_RA). Also, users of UNWIND_HINT_RET_OFFSET no longer need to set a custom return stack offset. Instead they just need to specify a func-like situation, so the current ret_offset code is hacky for no good reason. Solve both problems by simplifying the RET_OFFSET handling and converting it into a more useful UNWIND_HINT_FUNC. If we end up needing the old 'ret_offset' functionality again in the future, we should be able to support it pretty easily with the addition of a custom 'sp_offset' in UNWIND_HINT_FUNC.

The ORC metadata generated for UNWIND_HINT_FUNC isn't actually very
func-like.  With certain usages it can cause stack state mismatches
because it doesn't set the return address (CFI_RA).

Also, users of UNWIND_HINT_RET_OFFSET no longer need to set a custom
return stack offset.  Instead they just need to specify a func-like
situation, so the current ret_offset code is hacky for no good reason.

Solve both problems by simplifying the RET_OFFSET handling and
converting it into a more useful UNWIND_HINT_FUNC.

If we end up needing the old 'ret_offset' functionality again in the
future, we should be able to support it pretty easily with the addition
of a custom 'sp_offset' in UNWIND_HINT_FUNC.

objtool: Add asm version of STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD 2021-01-26T17:12:00+00:00 Josh Poimboeuf jpoimboe@redhat.com 2021-01-21T21:29:23+00:00 081df94301e317e84c3413686043987da2c3e39d To be used for adding asm functions to the ignore list. The "aw" is needed to help the ELF section metadata match GCC-created sections. Otherwise the linker creates duplicate sections instead of combining them.
